+makeinfo is a standalone program to convert Texinfo source into Info
+files readable with standalone info or M-x info in Emacs.
+
+makeinfo can also output plain ASCII. Work to support HTML and Troff
+output is almost complete.
+
+The Emacs function M-x texinfo-format-buffer does more or less the same
+job, but makeinfo is faster and gives better error messages.
