<p>‘<samp>@</samp>’ and curly braces are the basic special characters in
Texinfo. To insert these characters so they appear in text, you must
put an ‘<samp>@</samp>’ in front of these characters to prevent Texinfo from
misinterpreting them. Alphabetic commands are also provided.
</p>
<p>The other characters (comma, backslash, hash) are special only in
restricted contexts, as explained in the respective sections.
