I don't -- and won't -- use EMACS: I can't stand it! I do, and
want to, use vim. I like, and want to have, good man pages which
list all the essentials of the behaviour of commands. I rarely
want to get into the labyrinth of a texinfo document (though I'm
pleased it's there I need the more discursive information it
contains).
I can't help but agree here as well. I admit that I will pick the
manual over an info document on every occasion, but then again, I
don't use GNU. It does create a bit of a dilemma with groff and
man pages on the one hand, and having the GNU coding standards
refer to 'man pages' as 'secondary.'
