My plan is get the data from the html files and display the content with these facilities.

• Keyboard-centric UI
• Fast, responsive UI
• Index search
• Search a manual with regular expressions.

Please can you tell me about the gsoc proposal.Is it okay to make it as a google Doc.And also it's great if you can tell me the structure of the proposal.

Hi all,

I have planned some structure to this project. I need to get some more details about the keyboard centric UI.
Here sketched up current idea which i have .It's great if you can provide some feedback about this,

A "keyboard-centric UI" means a user interface that focuses on using the keyboard to control
what is viewed.  I.e. keyboard shortcuts - but as far as practical using
the keyboard commands of the existing terminal-based 'info' program.
I don't see how your sketch is in any way related to that goal.

Please read http://www.gnu.org/software/soc-projects/ideas-2016.html#texinfo
very carefully and make sure you understand what it is proposing.

The attachment to the message
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-texinfo/2016-02/msg00053.html
contains the *beginnings* of what we're asking for: _javascript_ key event
handlers for navigating through the documentation.

BTW you should not reply to "digest" emails, at least not without
changing the Subject line to something meaningful.
