836 Documentation in Info is divided into \"nodes\", each of which discusses

840 \\[Info-help] Invoke the Info tutorial.
842 Selecting other nodes:
843 \\[Info-next] Move to the \"next\" node of this node.
844 \\[Info-previous] Move to the \"previous\" node of this node.
845 \\[Info-up] Move \"up\" from this node.
846 \\[Info-menu] Pick menu item specified by name (or abbreviation).
847 Picking a menu item causes another node to be selected.
848 \\[Info-directory] Go to the Info directory node.
849 \\[Info-follow-reference] Follow a cross reference. Reads name of reference.
850 \\[Info-last] Move to the last node you were at.
852 Moving within a node:
853 \\[scroll-up] scroll forward a full screen. \\[scroll-down] scroll backward.
854 \\[beginning-of-buffer] Go to beginning of node.
856 Advanced commands:
857 \\[Info-exit] Quit Info: reselect previously selected buffer.
858 \\[Info-edit] Edit contents of selected node.
859 1 Pick first item in node's menu.
860 2, 3, 4, 5 Pick second ... fifth item in node's menu.
861 \\[Info-goto-node] Move to node specified by name.
