Non-nil argument (prefix, if interactive) means first update all
existing nodes and menus.  Remove pre-existing master menu, if there is one.

This function creates a master menu that follows the top node.  The
master menu includes every entry from all the other menus.  It
replaces any existing ordinary menu that follows the top node.

If called with a non-nil argument, this function first updates all the
menus in the buffer (incorporating descriptions from pre-existing

The function removes the detailed part of an already existing master
menu.  This action depends on the pre-existing master menu using the
standard `texinfo-master-menu-header'.

The master menu has the following format, which is adapted from the
recommendation in the Texinfo Manual:

   * The first part contains the major nodes in the Texinfo file: the
     nodes for the chapters, chapter-like sections, and the major
     appendices.  This includes the indices, so long as they are in
     chapter-like sections, such as unnumbered sections.

   * The second and subsequent parts contain a listing of the other,
     lower level menus, in order.  This way, an inquirer can go
     directly to a particular node if he or she is searching for
     specific information.

Each of the menus in the detailed node listing is introduced by the
title of the section containing the menu."

(autoload 'texinfo-multiple-files-update

  "Update first node pointers in each file included in OUTER-FILE;
create or update main menu in the outer file that refers to such nodes.
This does not create or update menus or pointers within the included files.

With optional MAKE-MASTER-MENU argument (prefix arg, if interactive),
insert a master menu in OUTER-FILE.  This does not create or update
menus or pointers within the included files.

With optional UPDATE-EVERYTHING argument (numeric prefix arg, if
interactive), update all the menus and all the `Next', `Previous', and
`Up' pointers of all the files included in OUTER-FILE before inserting
a master menu in OUTER-FILE.

The command also updates the `Top' level node pointers of OUTER-FILE.

Notes:

  * this command does NOT save any files--you must save the
    outer file and any modified, included files.

  * except for the `Top' node, this command does NOT handle any
    pre-existing nodes in the outer file; hence, indices must be
    enclosed in an included file.

Requirements:

  * each of the included files must contain exactly one highest
    hierarchical level node,
  * this highest node must be the first node in the included file,
  * each highest hierarchical level node must be of the same type.

Thus, normally, each included file contains one, and only one,
chapter."

  "Major mode for editing Texinfo files.

  It has these extra commands:
\\{texinfo-mode-map}

  These are files that are used as input for TeX to make printed manuals
and also to be turned into Info files with \\[makeinfo-buffer] or
the `makeinfo' program.  These files must be written in a very restricted and
modified version of TeX input format.

  Editing commands are like text-mode except that the syntax table is
set up so expression commands skip Texinfo bracket groups.  To see
what the Info version of a region of the Texinfo file will look like,
use \\[makeinfo-region], which runs `makeinfo' on the current region.

  You can show the structure of a Texinfo file with \\[texinfo-show-structure].
This command shows the structure of a Texinfo file by listing the
lines with the @-sign commands for @chapter, @section, and the like.
These lines are displayed in another window called the *Occur* window.
In that window, you can position the cursor over one of the lines and
use \\[occur-mode-goto-occurrence], to jump to the corresponding spot
in the Texinfo file.

  In addition, Texinfo mode provides commands that insert various
frequently used @-sign commands into the buffer.  You can use these
commands to save keystrokes.  And you can insert balanced braces with
\\[texinfo-insert-braces] and later use the command \\[up-list] to
move forward past the closing brace.

Also, Texinfo mode provides functions for automatically creating or
updating menus and node pointers.  These functions

  * insert the `Next', `Previous' and `Up' pointers of a node,
  * insert or update the menu for a section, and
  * create a master menu for a Texinfo source file.

Here are the functions:

    texinfo-update-node                \\[texinfo-update-node]
    texinfo-every-node-update          \\[texinfo-every-node-update]
    texinfo-sequential-node-update

    texinfo-make-menu                  \\[texinfo-make-menu]
    texinfo-all-menus-update           \\[texinfo-all-menus-update]
    texinfo-master-menu

    texinfo-indent-menu-description (column &optional region-p)

The `texinfo-column-for-description' variable specifies the column to
which menu descriptions are indented.

Passed an argument (a prefix argument, if interactive), the
`texinfo-update-node' and `texinfo-make-menu' functions do their jobs
in the region.

To use the updating commands, you must structure your Texinfo file
hierarchically, such that each `@node' line, with the exception of the
Top node, is accompanied by some kind of section line, such as an
`@chapter' or `@section' line.

If the file has a `top' node, it must be called `top' or `Top' and
be the first node in the file.

Entering Texinfo mode calls the value of `text-mode-hook', and then the
value of `texinfo-mode-hook'."
