Great, nice and succinct!

Sounds good.  I think I've tried to use 'info' twice, both of which were
absolutely unsuccessful.  These days, if a man page doesn't tell me what
I need to know, google normally does.  Whilst it is handy to have
complete documentation available offline, it's no longer the hard
requirement it used to be.
