Node:Help, Next:Help-P, Previous:Help-Small-Screen, Up:Getting Started
You are talking to the program Info, for reading documentation.
Right now you are looking at one Node of Information.
A node contains text describing a specific topic at a specific
level of detail. This node's topic is "how to use Info". The mode
line says that this is node Help in the file info.
The top line of a node is its header. This node's header (look at
it now) says that the Next node after this one is the node
called Help-P. An advanced Info command lets you go to any node
whose name you know. In the stand-alone Info reader program, the
header line shows the names of this node and the info file as well.
In Emacs, the header line is displayed in a special typeface, and it
doesn't scroll off the screen when you scroll the display. The names
of this node and of its Info file are omitted by Emacs from the header
line.
Besides a Next, a node can have a Previous or an
Up links, or both. As you can see, this node has all of these
links.
Now it is time to move on to the Next node, named Help-P.
>> Type n to move there. Type just one character; do not type the quotes and do not type a <RET> afterward.
>> in the margin means it is really time to try a command.
>> If you have a mouse, and if you already practiced typing n
to get to the next node, click now with the right mouse button on
the Next link to do the same ``the mouse way''.
