### Texinfo PDF compilation with texi2pdf

Texinfo is the documentation system used by GNU and other projects. The sources
can be compiled into .info files (with `makeinfo`) and be used with the software
`info` or they can be exported to PDF, HTML and other formats with `texi2pdf`
and `texi2html`.

On the first line texinfo sources include a .tex file with the command `\input
texinfo`, it implements the macros used throughout the document. The file
texinfo.tex is required to export the document and it needs to be installed with
tlmgr:

```
# tlmgr install texinfo
```
