$INFOPATH
info interprets the GNU info pages, and presents the info file information within a buffer window called *info XXXXX, where XXXXX is the name of the info file. The root of the info page is displayed and may be traversed by selecting the links with the mouse, or by using the standard info traversal keys.
The root of the info tree is, by default, a file called dir, which points to the other information sources. The default search paths for the info directories are:-
c:/info - MS-DOS and MS-Windows (all).
/usr/local/info - All UNIX platforms.
The root directory may also be specified with the $INFOPATH environment variable. This is a colon (:) or semi-colon (;) separated list of directory paths which specify the locations of the info files, for UNIX and Microsoft DOS/Windows environment's, respectively.
info is a macro implemented in file info.emf.
