Viewing the texi doc

30       This manpage has been automatically  generated  from  mtools's  texinfo
31       documentation.  However,  this  process is only approximative, and some
32       items, such as crossreferences, footnotes and indices are lost in  this
33       translation process.  Indeed, these items have no appropriate represen‐
34       tation in the manpage format.  Moreover, not all information  has  been
35       translated into the manpage version.  Thus I strongly advise you to use
36       the original texinfo doc.  See the end of this manpage for instructions
37       how to view the texinfo doc.

39       *      To  generate a printable copy from the texinfo doc, run the fol‐
40              lowing commands:
41
42                     ./configure; make dvi; dvips mtools.dvi
43
44
45
46       *      To generate a html copy,  run:
47
48                     ./configure; make html
49
50       A premade html can be found at `http://www.gnu.org/software/mtools/man‐
51       ual/mtools.html'
52
53       *      To  generate  an  info  copy (browsable using emacs' info mode),
54              run:
55
56                     ./configure; make info

60       The texinfo doc looks most pretty when printed or as html.  Indeed,  in
61       the  info  version  certain  examples  are difficult to read due to the
62       quoting conventions used in info.
