I like pinfo.  I think RMS and gang made a big mistake
by introducing another "man".  Pinfo, doesn't get you there
either, but it does allow you to view your info files using
familiar (perhaps) lynx-like (the first character based
WWW browser) navigation strokes.

If your running KDE/Konqueror, it likewise web-izes
the info pages... and since it handles man pages as well,
it could be the unifier under a GUI I/F.

In Konqueror you use (for example):

info:find
man:find

(in this case there are both info and man pages)
