I dont recall there ever being any info format documentation - there certainly isnt a Pod::Info module which might be used to create these files nor (at least on CPAN) any Pod::Texinfo module that might be used (via makeinfo) to create them. If you could find the files in Texinfo format you should be able to create them yourself. Of course having had a look at the format of a .info file I figure that would be very simply to create a pod2info translator - off you go I figure that it would take less than a day.

Just because people dont post here nowadays I dont think that you should be going round dissing them. /J\ -- < http://www.--.com/ > * Uri Guttman - Have You CPANed Backward.pm Yet ? **

Hi, In $CPAN/doc/manual/texinfo/, there's links to perl5 info files (5.004_04), as well as a pod2texi converter. best regards, randy kobes
