Info TUI

A modern terminal UI for GNU Info manuals. Separate from prohelp so it can be proposed upstream as an info replacement without dragging progressive-help / SDL into Texinfo politics.

Goals

  • Read installed .info files (and fall back to man when useful).

  • Clean Top chrome — suppress the noisy File: … Node: Top header on the dir/Top landing unless a manual was requested.

  • Prefer Overview / Description / Introduction content before Copyright / Copying / License.

  • Mouse-capable TUI via opentui-d.

  • Non-TTY dump mode for pipes.

  • Emit short orientation SDL for about / help --orient.
