<p>Here is a complete, short sample Texinfo file.  You can see this file, 
with comments, in the first chapter.  See <a href="Short-Sample.html">Short Sample</a>.
</p>
<p>In a nutshell: The <code>makeinfo</code> program transforms a Texinfo
source file such as this into an Info file or HTML; and TeX typesets
it for a printed manual.
