???  Have you actually used stand-alone `info` recently?  In its
standard configuration, you only need the arrow keys together with the
enter key to navigate.  The tab key also works quite similar to most
GUI applications to move from one field to the next.  As with `less`,
the space key moves one page down, the backspace key one page up.  You
press 's' to do a search.  For compatibility with `less`, you can even
press the '/' key to start a search.

This might have been true ten years ago, but it definitely is no
longer today.  Please, I ask everyone to do a fact check before
stating things that are simply not true.

I won't say more on this topic.  We are on a groff list.
