Up: Help-M

#### 1.6.1 The `u` command

Congratulations! This is the node ‘`Help-FOO`’. It has an ‘`Up`’ pointer ‘`Help-M`’, the node you just came from via the `m` command. This is the usual convention—the nodes you reach from a menu have ‘`Up`’ nodes that lead back to the menu. Menus move Down in the tree, and ‘`Up`’ moves Up. ‘`Previous`’, on the other hand, is usually used to “stay on the same level but go backwards”.

You can go back to the node ‘`Help-M`’ by typing the command `u` for “Up”. This puts you at the menu subtopic line pointing to the subnode that the `u` command brought you from. (Some Info readers may put you at the front of the node instead—to get back to where you were reading, you have to type some <SPC>s.)

Another way to go Up is to click `Mouse-2` on the ‘`Up`’ pointer shown in the header line (provided that you have a mouse).
