  <tmdoc-title|Standard markup>

  Various standard markup is defined in <tmdtd|std-markup>. The following
  textual content tags all take one argument. Most can be found in the
  <menu|Text|Content tag> menu.

  <\explain|<explain-macro|strong|content>>
    Indicates an <strong|important> region of text. You can enter this tag
    via <menu|Text|Content tag|Strong>.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|em|content>>
    Emphasizes a region of text like in ``the <em|real> thing''. This tag
    corresponds to the menu entry \ <menu|Text|Content tag|Emphasize>.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|dfn|content>>
    For definitions like ``a <dfn|gnu> is a horny beast''. This tag
    corresponds to <menu|Text|Content tag|Definition>.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|samp|content>>
    A sequence of literal characters like the <samp|ae> ligature æ. You can
    get this tag via <menu|Text|Content tag|Sample>.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|name|content>>
    The name of a particular thing or concept like the <name|Linux> system.
    This tag is obtained using <menu|Text|Content tag|Name>.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|person|content>>
    The name of a person like <name|Joris>. This tag corresponds to
    <menu|Text|Content tag|Person>.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|cite*|content>>
    A bibliographic citation like a book or magazine. Example: Melville's
    <cite*|Moby Dick>. This tag, which is obtained using <menu|Text|Content
    tag|Cite>, should not be confused with <markup|cite>. The latter tag is
    also used for citations, but where the argument refers to an entry in a
    database with bibliographic references.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|abbr|content>>
    An abbreviation. Example: I work at the <abbr|C.N.R.S.> An abbreviation
    is created using <menu|Text|Content tag|Abbreviation> or the <kbd-text|a>
    keyboard shortcut.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|acronym|content>>
    An acronym is an abbreviation formed from the first letter of each word
    in a name or a phrase, such as <acronym|HTML> or <acronym|IBM>. In
    particular, the letters are not separated by dots. You may enter an
    acronym using <menu|Text|Content tag|Acronym>.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|verbatim|content>>
    Verbatim text like output from a computer program. Example: the program
    said <verbatim|hello>. You may enter verbatim text via <menu|Text|Content
    tag|Verbatim>. The tag may also be used as an environment for
    multi-paragraph text.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|kbd|content>>
    Text which should be entered on a keyboard. Example: please type
    <kbd|return>. This tag corresponds to the menu entry <menu|Text|Content
    tag|Keyboard>.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|code*|content>>
    Code of a computer program like in ``<code*|cout \<less\>\<less\> 1+1;>
    yields <verbatim|2>''. This is entered using <menu|Text|Content
    tag|Code>. For longer pieces of code, you should use the <markup|code>
    environment.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|var|content>>
    Variables in a computer program like in <verbatim|cp <var|src-file>
    <var|dest-file>>. This tag corresponds to the menu entry
    <menu|Text|Content tag|Variable>.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|math|content>>
    This is a tag which will be used in the future for mathematics inside
    regular text. Example: the formula <math|sin<rsup|2> x+cos<rsup|2> x=1>
    is well-known.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|op|content>>
    This is a tag which can be used inside mathematics for specifying that an
    operator should be considered on itself, without any arguments. Example:
    the operation <math|<op|+>> is a function from
    <with|mode|math|\<bbb-R\><rsup|2>> to <with|mode|math|\<bbb-R\>>. This
    tag may become depreciated.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|tt|content>>
    This is a physical tag for typewriter phase. It is used for compatibility
    with <name|HTML>, but we do not recommend its use.
  </explain>

  The following are standard environments:

  <\explain|<explain-macro|verbatim|body>>
    Described above.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|code|body>>
    Similar to <markup|code*>, but for pieces of code of several lines.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|quote-env|body>>
    Environment for short (one paragraph) quotations.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|quotation|body>>
    Environment for long (multi-paragraph) quotations.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|verse|body>>
    Environment for poetry.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|center|body>>
    This is a physical tag for centering one or several lines of text. It is
    used for compatibility with <name|HTML>, but we do not recommend its use.
  </explain>

  Some standard tabular environments are

  <\explain|<explain-macro|tabular*|table>>
    Centered tables.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|block|table>>
    Left aligned tables with a border of standard <verbatim|1ln> width.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|block*|table>>
    Centered tables with a border of standard <verbatim|1ln> width.
  </explain>

  The following miscellaneous tags don't take arguments:

  <explain|<explain-macro|TeXmacs>|The <TeXmacs> logo.>

  <explain|<explain-macro|TeXmacs-version>|The current version of <TeXmacs>
  (<TeXmacs-version>).>

  <explain|<explain-macro|TeX>|The <TeX> logo.>

  <explain|<explain-macro|LaTeX>|The <LaTeX> logo.>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|hflush>, <explain-macro|left-flush>,
  <explain-macro|right-flush>>
    Used by developers for flushing to the right in the definition of
    environments.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|hrule>>
    A horizontal rule like the one you see below:

    <value|hrule>
  </explain>

  The following miscellaneous tags all take one or more arguments:

  <\explain|<explain-macro|overline|content>>
    For <overline|overlined text>, which can be wrapped across several lines.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|underline|content>>
    For <underline|underlined text>, which can be wrapped across several
    lines.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|fold|summary|body>>
    The <src-arg|summary> is displayed and the <src-arg|body> ignored: the
    macro corresponds to the folded presentation of a piece of content
    associated to a short title or abstract. The second argument can be made
    visible using <menu|Insert|Switch|Unfold>.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|unfold|summary|body>>
    Unfolded presentation of a piece of content <src-arg|body> associated to
    a short title or abstract <src-arg|summary>. The second argument can be
    made invisible using <menu|Insert|Switch|Fold>.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|switch|current|alternatives>>
    Content which admits a finite number of alternative representation among
    which the user can switch using the function keys <key|F9>, <key|F10>,
    <key|F11> and <key|F12>. This may for instance be used in interactive
    presentations. The argument <src-arg|current> correspond to the currently
    visible presentation and <src-arg|alternative> to the set of
    alternatives.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|phantom|content>>
    This tag takes as much space as the typeset argument <src-arg|content>
    would take, but <src-arg|content> is not displayed. For instance,
    <inactive*|<phantom|phantom>> yields ``<phantom|phantom>''.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|set-header|header-text>>
    A macro for permanently changing the header. Notice that certain tags in
    the style file, like sectional tags, may override such manual changes.
  </explain>

  <\explain|<explain-macro|set-footer|footer-text>>
    A macro for permanently changing the footer. Again, certain tags in the
    style file may override such manual changes.
