tkinfo is a graphical browser for documentation in the GNU Info hypertext format.

INFOPATH
              A colon (``:'') separated list of directories to search for info files. More  directories  can  be
              given  with  -dir  options,  above.  If not set, tkinfo will try various standard directories that
              should be ok for most systems.

       INFOSUFFIX
              A colon separated list of file suffixes to try when searching for an info file. If not set, tkinfo
              will try the suffixes "", ".info", and "-info". In addition, tkinfo will always automatically  try
              the suffixes .Z, .z, and .gz and deal with the compressed file if necessary.

       -/+buttons
              Turns on/off display of the button row. Default is on.

       -/+balloons
              Turns on/off balloonhelp for the buttons. Default is on.

       -/+scrollthrough
              Turns  on/off  jumping  to  the  successor node when attempting to scroll at the bottom of a node.
              Default is on.

       -/+pagesep
              Turns on/off inserting of page separators when scrolling page-wise.  Default is on.

       -/+showdir
              Turns on/off showing the full pathname of the displayed info file. Default is off.

       -linklooktype
              Specifies how to display cross references and menu entries.  type must be one of "color",  "font",
              or "underline". Default is "color" on color displays and "underline" on black and white displays.

       -highlighttype
              Specifies how to highlight links.  type must be one of "color", "inverse", or "underline". Default
              is "inverse".

       -searchlooktype
              Specifies  how  to  highlight  matches after searches.  type must be one of "color", "inverse", or
              "underline". Default is "inverse".

       -geometrygeom
              Geometry of the window.  geom must be of the form XxY+A+B or XxY or +A+B, where X  and  Y  specify
              the size of the window in characters and A and B the location in pixels.

       -displaydisplay
              X display to use for the tkinfo window.

       -iconic
              Start the first window in iconic state.

       -dirdir
              Specifies  directories  to  search  for info files, in addition to those contained in the INFOPATH
              environment variable.  The directories specified with -dir will be searched first,  in  the  order
              given.

       node   Specifies the info node to visit initially. Possible formats for node are:
                "(filename)nodename"  most general
                "(filename)"          equivalent to (filename)Top
                "filename"            equivalent to (filename).

       If  filename is not absolute, the info directories (from INFOPATH and -dir) will be searched. If filename
       cannot be found, its lower case version will be tried.

       An alternative way to specify the node "(FILE)NODE" is with "-file FILE -node NODE".

       If no node is given, the default node "(dir)Top" is used.

       The  program documents itself in the info format: start it and type "h". Customization via X resources is
       also documented in that way.
