Man is older than info. Man is more like a simple ASCII file, though it
isn't ASCII, exactly. Info is an early implementation of hyperlinking.
Of course, hyperlinks later became famous as on of the key features

PS: You don't really need to ask the second part of the question above,
unless you can't get things working. There's no harm with testing your
theories, assumptions, and suppositions. In fact, it's advisable.

In fact, my not even going to answer, because you don't need me to.
