Name        : texinfo
Version     : 4.8
Release     : 14.fc6
Summary     : Tools needed to create Texinfo format documentation files.
Description :
Texinfo is a documentation system that can produce both online
information and printed output from a single source file. The GNU

Install texinfo if you want a documentation system for producing both
online and print documentation from the same source file and/or if you
are going to write documentation for the GNU Project.
