<h4 class="subsection">2.5.3 Other Updating Commands</h4>
<p>In addition to the five major updating commands, Texinfo mode
possesses several less frequently used updating commands:
<dl>
<dt><kbd>M-x texinfo-insert-node-lines</kbd><dd><a name="index-texinfo_002dinsert_002dnode_002dlines-137"></a>Insert <code>@node</code> lines before the <code>@chapter</code>,
<code>@section</code>, and other sectioning commands wherever they are
missing throughout a region in a Texinfo file.
<p>With an argument (<kbd>C-u</kbd> as prefix argument, if interactive), the
<code>texinfo-insert-node-lines</code> command not only inserts
<code>@node</code> lines but also inserts the chapter or section titles as
the names of the corresponding nodes. In addition, it inserts the
titles as node names in pre-existing <code>@node</code> lines that lack
names. Since node names should be more concise than section or
chapter titles, you must manually edit node names so inserted.
<p>For example, the following marks a whole buffer as a region and inserts
<code>@node</code> lines and titles throughout:
<pre class="example"> C-x h C-u M-x texinfo-insert-node-lines
</pre>
<p>This command inserts titles as node names in <code>@node</code> lines; the
<code>texinfo-start-menu-description</code> command (see <a href="Inserting.html#Inserting">Inserting Frequently Used Commands</a>) inserts titles as descriptions in
menu entries, a different action. However, in both cases, you need to
edit the inserted text.
<br><dt><kbd>M-x texinfo-multiple-files-update</kbd><dd><a name="index-texinfo_002dmultiple_002dfiles_002dupdate-_0040r_007b_0028in-brief_0029_007d-138"></a>Update nodes and menus in a document built from several separate files.
With <kbd>C-u</kbd> as a prefix argument, create and insert a master menu in
the outer file. With a numeric prefix argument, such as <kbd>C-u 2</kbd>, first
update all the menus and all the `Next', `Previous', and `Up' pointers
of all the included files before creating and inserting a master menu in
the outer file. The <code>texinfo-multiple-files-update</code> command is
described in the appendix on <code>@include</code> files.
See <a href="texinfo_002dmultiple_002dfiles_002dupdate.html#texinfo_002dmultiple_002dfiles_002dupdate">texinfo-multiple-files-update</a>.
<br><dt><kbd>M-x texinfo-indent-menu-description</kbd><dd><a name="index-texinfo_002dindent_002dmenu_002ddescription-139"></a>Indent every description in the menu following point to the specified
column. You can use this command to give yourself more space for
descriptions. With an argument (<kbd>C-u</kbd> as prefix argument, if
interactive), the <code>texinfo-indent-menu-description</code> command indents
every description in every menu in the region. However, this command
does not indent the second and subsequent lines of a multi-line
description.
<br><dt><kbd>M-x texinfo-sequential-node-update</kbd><dd><a name="index-texinfo_002dsequential_002dnode_002dupdate-140"></a>Insert the names of the nodes immediately following and preceding the
current node as the `Next' or `Previous' pointers regardless of those
nodes' hierarchical level. This means that the `Next' node of a
subsection may well be the next chapter. Sequentially ordered nodes are
useful for novels and other documents that you read through
sequentially. (However, in Info, the <kbd>g *</kbd> command lets
you look through the file sequentially, so sequentially ordered nodes
are not strictly necessary.) With an argument (prefix argument, if
interactive), the <code>texinfo-sequential-node-update</code> command
sequentially updates all the nodes in the region.
