<h3 class="section">10.7 <code>@small...</code> Block Commands</h3>
<p><a name="index-Small-examples-494"></a><a name="index-Examples-in-smaller-fonts-495"></a><a name="index-Lisp-examples-in-smaller-fonts-496"></a><a name="index-smalldisplay-497"></a><a name="index-smallexample-498"></a><a name="index-smallformat-499"></a><a name="index-smalllisp-500"></a>
In addition to the regular <code>@example</code> and <code>@lisp</code> commands,
Texinfo has “small” example-style commands. These are
<code>@smalldisplay</code>, <code>@smallexample</code>, <code>@smallformat</code>, and
<code>@smalllisp</code>.
<p>In Info, the <code>@small...</code> commands are equivalent to their
non-small companion commands.
<p>In TeX, however, the <code>@small...</code> commands typeset text in
a smaller font than the non-small example commands. Consequently,
many examples containing long lines fit on a page without needing to
be shortened.
<p>Mark the end of an <code>@small...</code> block with a corresponding
<code>@end small...</code>. For example, pair <code>@smallexample</code> with
<code>@end smallexample</code>.
<p>Here is an example of the font used by the <code>@small...</code>
commands (in Info, the output will be the same as usual):
<pre class="smallexample"> ... to make sure that you have the freedom to
distribute copies of free software (and charge for
this service if you wish), that you receive source
code or can get it if you want it, that you can
change the software or use pieces of it in new free
programs; and that you know you can do these things.
</pre>
<p>The <code>@small...</code> commands make it easier to prepare manuals
without forcing you to edit examples by hand to fit them onto narrower
pages.
<p>As a general rule, a printed document looks much better if you use
only one of (for instance) <code>@example</code> or <code>@smallexample</code>
consistently within a chapter.
