[OS X TeX] Advice requested, please...

[Peter Teeson]

There is a project/package, Gnu-apl, which is developed using the classical terminal approach: checkout from the svn repo;  ./configure; make; make install; etc etc.

The documentation uses the Gnu texinfo mechanism for most of it and also some  READMEs of plain text.

Having used TeXShop and LaTeX to produce a macOS specific Installation Guide, now I am contemplating making a reference manual(s).

Rather than having to re-type the texinfo data all over again is there a tool to extract the text only?

Meanwhile I going to read up on making indexes (indices?) in LaTeX.

Or some other advice you can offer me?

TKS

Peter
