Hi Catonano,

As Arun and Oleg said, 'm' is very useful (maybe with C-u), and 'd'
too.  And there is the 'info-display-manual' command too.

I tried m right now and it suffices

helm is awesome but I don' t want to install further packages and learn new things.
I just want to be ushered in the Guix info page right....  now ;-)
 
But what you should really do (in my humble opinion :-)) is to read the
(info "info") manual.  It is very well done and explains everything in
an interactive way.

I have a reading phobia :-)

My first computer as an adult was an Apple Macintosh

At the time the mantra was that if something required a manual to be read, it was not well made ;-)

Now, now, I'm perfectly aware of the historical and cultural differences ;-)

I was a young adult back then and changing habits is harder and harder with the flow of the time

I' ll take a look at the info info page though

You gotta give me I came a loooong way !! :-)

Thank you all people for your suggestions !
Ciao
