As far as I can tell, "info" 4.0 still does not respect your .inputrc
setting, nor the EDITOR environment variable, nor any other setting
that a non-emacs user is likely to have already configured. So in
order to learn how to bind the keys for "vi"/"less", you need to read
the "man" page to find out about the --vi-keys option.
I love the irony. It goes a short way towards making up for having to
write groff documentation in texinfo.

I agree there. Give me a big file that I can search using whatever
tools I prefer.
