;; Description:
;; Preserving Info-history-list across sessions using savehist or desktop.el
;; allows users to save and restore the links marked as "read" within the Info
;; system, providing a visual cue of which nodes have been visited.
;;
;; Info-history-list in Emacs is a variable that stores a list of previously
;; visited nodes in the Emacs Info documentation reader. Info-history-list is
;; particularly useful for tracking progress through extensive documentation,
;; helping users to easily identify what content they have already reviewed and
;; what remains to be read.
