There's a good info viewer that is more like lynx than info.
It's called pinfo, and I use it all the time for reading info pages.
If it can't find info page it shows a man page (try 'pinfo cp').
The key bindings are familiar to UNIX users (think 'more') and extra
features of info are supported with bindings that vi(m) users will love.

If you don't like the default colours you can use my .pinforc attached
below (change mutt to your own mail program; pine was the default).

# pinfo reverses bold and italic attributes in man pages :-(
