@exampleindent: Environment Indenting
The Texinfo processors indent each line of @example and similar
environments. You can use the @exampleindent command to specify
this indentation. Write an @exampleindent command at the
beginning of a line followed by either `asis' or a number:
@exampleindent indent
@exampleindent is ignored for HTML output. Otherwise, the
indentation is according to the value of indent:
asisThe default value of indent is 5 spaces in Info, and 0.4in in TeX, which is somewhat less. (The reduction is to help TeX fit more characters onto physical lines.)
It is best to write the @exampleindent command before the
end-of-header line at the beginning of a Texinfo file, so the region
formatting commands indent paragraphs as specified. See Start of Header.
