It is used by many non-GNU projects as +well. + +Texinfo uses a single source file to produce output in a number +of formats, both online and printed (dvi, html, info, pdf, xml, +etc.). This means that instead of writing different documents +for online information and another for a printed manual, you +need write only one document. And when the work is revised, you +need revise only that one document. The Texinfo system is +well-integrated with GNU Emacs.") + (license "GPLv3+"))) |
