+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 other formats: plain ASCII (with --no-headers)
+or HTML (with --html) or XML (with --xml).
+
+The Emacs function M-x texinfo-format-buffer does more or less the same
+job, but makeinfo is faster and gives better error messages.
