Try the Info reader of RHIDE, this have mouse support (included 132 cols video
modes), i don't know is it's faster than info (in performance) but in my
machine is quick enough and i puted a pretty search option to search a word in
*all* the .INF files listed on dir, this is very usefull if you don't know
where is the word.
