The format used by info is just shit, and I saw UNIX files with huge violations 
to the standard. I think it must be redesigned, but isn't our work. 
I don't understand why in the hell the format uses markers to separate nodes 
(ASCII 31) but no to separate links (the methode used is totally confusing).
