Well, we (Tru64 UNIX) also provide all the documentation online,
so that you can use Netscape to look at the man pages as well as
the regular books, in HTML.
But, my point is that, to my admittedly limited knowledge, none of
the major commercial UNIX vendors have bothered to switch to the
GNU Info system. There just doesn't seem to be much reason to.
The only time that I've used the Info system is when I try to look
up stuff about Xemacs when I'm using Xemacs, and I find it to be
counter-intuitive and a bloody nuisance.
Just my 20 millidollars' worth, and the usual disclaimer is definitely
in force.
