@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

The indentation is according to the value of indent:

asis

Do not change the existing indentation (not implemented in TeX).

0

Omit all indentation.

n

Indent environments by n space characters in Info output, by n ems in TeX.

The default value of indent is 5. @exampleindent is ignored for HTML output.

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.
