I know, but the info key bindings don’t make sense in Vim culture; for 
instance, in Vim you use C-D and C-U to scroll up and down half a screen, so 
using space and backspace is unnecessary and might break bindings the user has 
already set up. I will provide a manual for info.vim of course and everything 
will have a corresponding analog, so if you know how to use standalone or Emacs 
info you’ll be up and running in no time. I just want to get the plugin working 
before I write a manual. There is already the readme, a reference manual for 
the plugin (in Vim’s native format) and there will be an info tutorial in info 
format that user will be able to get to with the `:InfoTutor` command.
