<h4 class="subsection">21.1.2 Running <code>makeinfo</code> from a Shell</h4>
<p><a name="index-makeinfo-1210"></a>
To create an Info file from a Texinfo file, invoke <samp><span class="command">makeinfo</span></samp>
followed by the name of the Texinfo file. Thus, to create the Info
file for Bison, type the following to the shell:
<pre class="example"> makeinfo bison.texinfo
</pre>
<p>(You can run a shell inside Emacs by typing <kbd>M-x shell</kbd>.)
<p><samp><span class="command">makeinfo</span></samp> has many options to control its actions and output;
see the next section.
<p>You can give <samp><span class="command">makeinfo</span></samp> more than one input file name; each is
processed in turn. If an input file name is ‘<samp><span class="samp">-</span></samp>’, or no input
file names are given at all, standard input is read.
