The first node of a Texinfo file is the Top node, except in an included file (see section Include Files). The Top node contains the main or master menu for the document, and a short summary of the document (see section The `Top' Node Summary).
The Top node (which must be named `top' or `Top') should have
as its `Up' node the name of a node in another file, where there is a
menu that leads to this file. Specify the file name in parentheses. If
the file is to be installed directly in the Info directory file, use
`(dir)' as the parent of the Top node; this is short for
`(dir)top', and specifies the Top node in the `dir' file,
which contains the main menu for the Info system as a whole. For
example, the @node Top line of this manual looks like this:
@node Top, Copying, , (dir)
(You can use the Texinfo updating commands or the makeinfo
utility to insert these pointers automatically.)
Do not define the `Previous' node of the Top node to be `(dir)', as it causes confusing behavior for users: if you are in the Top node and hits DEL to go backwards, you wind up in the middle of the some other entry in the `dir' file, which has nothing to do with what you were reading.
See section Installing an Info File, for more information about installing an Info file in the `info' directory.
