Marking words and phrases

A lot of in-line elements are used to mark words or phrases. Actually, the DTD is very permissive, so that every element of these can contain any in-line element. It is so only to assure compatibility with Texinfo, but may change in the future. The following table list these elements, included kbdinputstyle, used to select the style for the kbd element.

Element Attribute Content Description or Texinfo equivalence
code in-line @code
kbd in-line @kbd
kbdinputstyle empty @kbdinputstyle
style code, example, distinct how to show keyboard input style; default is distinct
key in-line @key
samp in-line @samp
var in-line @var
env in-line @env
file in-line @file
command in-line @command
option in-line @option
dfn in-line @dfn
cite in-line @cite
acronym in-line @acronym
url in-line @url
emph in-line @emph
strong in-line @strong
sc in-line @sc
roman in-line @r
italic in-line @i
bold in-line @b
