So you might be glad that Apple seems to have stopped shipping `info`

Progress, eh?
`info` and `man` solve two different problems,
regardless of one's
opinion of the interface to the former (which can be learned, it's no
more arcane than `vi`).
I feel like the man vs info war (IMHO it's a war) on Linux has gone too
far. Far enough that there are some tools that have between woefully
inadequate man pages to missing man pages in favor of info documentation.
It's worse than solving different problems.
