Running `makeinfo' from a Shell
-------------------------------

  To create an Info file from a Texinfo file, type `makeinfo' followed
by the name of the Texinfo file.  Thus, to create the Info file for
Bison, type the following to the shell:

     makeinfo bison.texinfo

  (You can run a shell inside Emacs by typing `M-x shell'.)

  Sometimes you will want to specify options.  For example, if you wish
to discover which version of `makeinfo' you are using, type:

     makeinfo --version
