  "Raise or lower the hierarchical level of chapters, sections, etc. 

This function acts according to `@raisesections' and `@lowersections'
commands in the Texinfo file.

For example, an `@lowersections' command is useful if you wish to
include what is written as an outer or standalone Texinfo file in
another Texinfo file as an inner, included file.  The `@lowersections'
command changes chapters to sections, sections to subsections and so
on.

@raisesections changes @subsection to @section,
                       @section    to @chapter,
                       @heading    to @chapheading,
                       etc.

@lowersections changes @chapter    to @section,
                       @subsection to @subsubsection,
                       @heading    to @subheading,

An `@raisesections' or `@lowersections' command changes only those
structuring commands that follow the `@raisesections' or
`@lowersections' command.

An `@lowersections' command cancels an `@raisesections' command, and
vice versa.

level a step at a time.

attempt to lower below subsubsections reproduces subsubsection

;;     @end multitable
;;
;; where the fractions specify the width of each column as a percent
;; of the current width of the text (i.e., of the fill-column).
;;
;; Long lines of text are filled within columns.
;;
;; Using the Emacs Lisp formatter, texinfmt.el, 
;; the whitespace between columns can be increased by setting
;; `texinfo-extra-inter-column-width' to a value greater than 0.  By default,
;; there is at least one blank space between columns.
;;
;; The Emacs Lisp formatter, texinfmt.el, ignores the following four
;; commands that are defined in texinfo.tex for printed output.
;; 
;;     @multitableparskip,
;;     @multitableparindent,
;;     @multitablecolmargin,
;;     @multitablelinespace.

;; How @multitable works.
;; =====================
;; 
;; `texinfo-multitable' reads the @multitable line and determines from it
;; how wide each column should be.  
;; 
;; Also, it pushes this information, along with an identifying symbol,
;; onto the `texinfo-stack'.  At the @end multitable command, the stack
;; is checked for its matching @multitable command, and then popped, or
;; else an error is signaled.  Also, this command pushes the location of
;; the start of the table onto the stack.
;; 
;; `texinfo-end-multitable' checks the `texinfo-stack' that the @end
;; multitable truly is ending a corresponding beginning, and if it is,
;; pops the stack.
;; 
;; `texinfo-multitable-widths' is called by `texinfo-multitable'.  
;; The function returns a list of the widths of each column in a
;; multi-column table, based on the information supplied by the arguments
;; to the @multitable command (by arguments, I mean the text on the rest
;; of the @multitable line, not the remainder of the multi-column table
;; environment).
;; 
;; `texinfo-multitable-item' formats a row within a multicolumn table.
;; This command is executed when texinfmt sees @item inside @multitable.
;; Cells in row are separated by `@tab's.  Widths of cells are specified
;; by the arguments in the @multitable line.  Cells are filled.  All cells
;; are made to be the same height by padding their bottoms, as needed,
;; with blanks.
;; 
;; `texinfo-multitable-extract-row' is called by `texinfo-multitable-item'.  
;; This function returns the text in a multitable row, as a string.
;; The start of a row is marked by an @item and the end of row is the
;; beginning of next @item or beginning of the @end multitable line.
;; Cells within a row are separated by @tab.
;; 
;; Note that @tab, the cell separators, are not treated as independent
;; Texinfo commands.

;;; Define the Info enclosure command: @definfoenclose

;; A `@definfoenclose' command may be used to define a highlighting
;; command for Info, but not for TeX.  A command defined using
;; `@definfoenclose' marks text by enclosing it in strings that precede
;; and follow the text.
;; 
;; Presumably, if you define a command with `@definfoenclose` for Info,
;; you will also define the same command in the TeX definitions file,
;; `texinfo.tex' in a manner appropriate for typesetting.
;; 
;; Write a `@definfoenclose' command on a line and follow it with three
;; arguments separated by commas (commas are used as separators in an
;; `@node' line in the same way).  The first argument to
;; `@definfoenclose' is the @-command name \(without the `@'\); the
;; second argument is the Info start delimiter string; and the third
;; argument is the Info end delimiter string.  The latter two arguments
;; enclose the highlighted text in the Info file.  A delimiter string
;; may contain spaces.  Neither the start nor end delimiter is
;; required.  However, if you do not provide a start delimiter, you
;; must follow the command name with two commas in a row; otherwise,
;; the Info formatting commands will misinterpret the end delimiter
;; string as a start delimiter string.
;;
;; If you do a @definfoenclose{} on the name of a pre-defined macro (such
;; as @emph{}, @strong{}, @tt{}, or @i{}) the enclosure definition will
;; override the built-in definition.
;; 
;; An enclosure command defined this way takes one argument in braces.
;;
;; For example, you can write:
;;
;;     @ifinfo
;;     @definfoenclose phoo, //, \\
;;     @end ifinfo
;;
;; near the beginning of a Texinfo file at the beginning of the lines
;; to define `@phoo' as an Info formatting command that inserts `//'
;; before and `\\' after the argument to `@phoo'.  You can then write
;; `@phoo{bar}' wherever you want `//bar\\' highlighted in Info.
;;
;; Also, for TeX formatting, you could write 
;;
;;     @iftex
;;     @global@let@phoo=@i
;;     @end iftex
;;
;; to define `@phoo' as a command that causes TeX to typeset
;; the argument to `@phoo' in italics.
;;
;; Note that each definition applies to its own formatter: one for TeX,
;; the other for texinfo-format-buffer or texinfo-format-region.
;;
;; Here is another example: write
;;
;;     @definfoenclose headword, , :
;;
;; near the beginning of the file, to define `@headword' as an Info
;; formatting command that inserts nothing before and a colon after the
;; argument to `@headword'.

;;; Process included files:  `@include' command

;; Updated 19 October 1990
;; In the original version, include files were ignored by Info but
;; incorporated in to the printed manual.  To make references to the
;; included file, the Texinfo source file has to refer to the included
;; files using the `(filename)nodename' format for referring to other
;; Info files.  Also, the included files had to be formatted on their
;; own.  It was just like they were another file.

;; Currently, include files are inserted into the buffer that is
;; formatted for Info.  If large, the resulting info file is split and
;; tagified.  For current include files to work, the master menu must
;; refer to all the nodes, and the highest level nodes in the include
;; files must have the correct next, prev, and up pointers.

;; The included file may have an @setfilename and even an @settitle,
;; but not an `\input texinfo' line.

;; Updated 24 March 1993
;; In order for @raisesections and @lowersections to work, included
;; files must be inserted into the buffer holding the outer file
;; before other Info formatting takes place.  So @include is no longer
;; is treated like other @-commands.
