<h3 class="section">10.8 <code>@display</code> and <code>@smalldisplay</code></h3>
<p><a name="index-Display-formatting-501"></a><a name="index-display-502"></a>
The <code>@display</code> command begins a kind of example, where each line
of input produces a line of output, and the output is indented. It is
thus like the <code>@example</code> command except that, in a printed
manual, <code>@display</code> does not select the fixed-width font. In
fact, it does not specify the font at all, so that the text appears in
the same font it would have appeared in without the <code>@display</code>
command.
<pre class="display"> This is an example of text written between an <code>@display</code> command
and an <code>@end display</code> command. The <code>@display</code> command
indents the text, but does not fill it.
</pre>
<p><a name="index-smalldisplay-503"></a>Texinfo also provides a command <code>@smalldisplay</code>, which is like
<code>@display</code> but uses a smaller font in <code>@smallbook</code> format.
See <a href="small.html#small">small</a>.
<p>The <code>@table</code> command (see <a href="table.html#table">table</a>) does not work inside
<code>@display</code>. Since <code>@display</code> is line-oriented, it doesn't
make sense to use them together. If you want to indent a table, try
<code>@quotation</code> (see <a href="quotation.html#quotation">quotation</a>).
