+sub usage {
+  print <<EOM;
+
+Purpose: Extract full text from info node and search it by regex
+Usage: $myscript [-e] TARGET REGEX
+
+Where TARGET is an info node such as `emacs', `bash' etc, and
+REGEX is what you want to find in it.
+
+The -e flag is not required but if used then 6 lines preceding and six
+lines following any hits will be printed.  The default (with no -e flag)
+is to print one line before and after.
+
+The output has the line number prepended to the line containing the
+actual regex.
+
+Info command used:
+  info --output - --subnodes 2>/dev/null TARGET
+
+EOM
