21.1.2 Running makeinfo from a Shell

To create an Info file from a Texinfo file, invoke 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.)

makeinfo has many options to control its actions and output; see the next section.
