.TH CLEANUP-INFO 8 "November 1999" "Debian Project" "dpkg utilities" .SH NAME cleanup-info \- clean up the mess that bogus install-info may have done .SH SYNOPSIS .B cleanup-info [--help] [--unsafe] [--version] [--] [\fI<dirname>\fP] .SH DESCRIPTION .B cleanup-info is a Perl script that tries to clean up the mess that bogus install-info may have done. It gathers all sections with the same heading into a single one. It tries to be smart about cases and trailing colon/spaces. .br Other clean-ups include removing of empty sections, and squeezing the blank lines (in entries part only). .sp Order of sections is preserved (the first encountered section counts). Order of entries within a section is preserved. .sp Please be \fBextremely careful\fP when using this utility - it might not be 100% safe. cleanup-info tries to be careful with your info dir file, but only until it writes it. You should back the file up prior to using this. .SH OPTIONS .TP .I --help Output the help screen and exit successfully. .TP .I --unsafe Set some additional possibly useful options. .br .B "Warning: the `--unsafe' option may garble an otherwise correct file!" .TP .I --version Output version and exit successfully. .SH FILES .TP .I "/usr/info/dir or <dirname>/dir" The info directory file. The lock file is named the same, with ".lock" suffix. .SH BUGS Probably many. .SH SEE ALSO .BR install-info (8), .BR info (1). .SH AUTHOR Copyright (C) 1996 Kim-Minh Kaplan. .sp This is free software; see the GNU General Public Licence version 2 or later for copying conditions.
