Hello,

In the olden days before Org's own manual was written using an org-mode
file, I started doing just that for Magit.  Because ox-texinfo.el wasn't
quite there yet I wrote an extension, ox-texinfo+.el, to fill in the
gaps.  Since then I have written seven more manuals that use my
extension.

I recently talked to Bastien about this and he encouraged to bring up
the possibility of merging ox-texinfo+.el into ox-texinfo.el.

ox-texinfo+ (https://github.com/tarsius/ox-texinfo-plus) has several
features but the one I would like to talk about now is the following.

[If you want to look at the other features now, then please use the
 "next" branch as I am in the process of trimming some of them down
 or even removing them completely.  The main feature is the same in
 the "master" and "next" branches.]

   Create `@deffn` and similar definition items by writing list
   items in Org that look similar to what they will look like in
   Info.  To enable this, add:

   #+TEXINFO_DEFFN: t

   to your Org file.  After doing that, you can create definition
   items like so:

   - Command: magit-section-show

     Show the body of the current section.

   - Function: magit-git-exit-code &rest args
   - Macro: magit-insert-section &rest args
   - Variable: magit-display-buffer-noselect
   - User Option: magit-display-buffer-function
   - Key: q, magit-mode-bury-buffer

I propose that we add this as an optional feature to ox-texinfo.el
itself.

IMO the biggest advantage of this style is that it leads to a prettier
org file, which is suitable for direct consumption by end-users.  It is
also easier to write in this style by package authors who might not want
to fully familiarize themselves with all the peculiarities of writing an
org file intended for export to texinfo.

It is possible to mix the two styles; you can use the ox-texinfo+.el
style for most or all definitions but use the additional flexibility of
ox-texinfo.el, when that is needed.

What do you think?  Might this be something that could be merged?

The reason I am bringing this up now after years of maintaining this as
an extension is that I would like to finally stop checking in both the
*.org and *.texi files into git.  [Non]GNU Elpa already supports this
and I plan to implement it for Melpa as well.  It would be much nicer if
the only additional requirement for an *elpa was to have a recent enough
Org version installed, instead of that and also ox-texinfo+.el.

     Cheers,
     Jonas

I like the idea, thank you for suggesting it.

The chosen UI is rather odd however. I cannot think of another use of
controlling export thhough "#+keyword: boolean" syntax. Usually, we
extend the "options" keyword. It could become, for example:

  #+options: texinfo+:t

Could it be possible to use that syntax instead?

How is it possible? Keywords are global. How do you change value
locally?

Of course.  I probably used the separate keyword because all the entries
for ox-texinfo's :options-alist did that too, but if that's not how this
is usually done for booleans, then I see no reason not to change it.

Well... it turned out not to be true, but I should be able to get it to
work.  The idea is that the new shorthand handling is only used if such
a shorthand is actually used by the item that is being processed.  All
other list items should effectively be treated as before, but that isn't
the case yet.  For now all non-shorthand list items are simply treated
as @item, but `org-texinfo+-item' could be changed to instead fall back
to the `org-texinfo-item's default behavior in those cases.  (It would
still have to check whether it needs to begin and/or end the "item
container" (itemize/table/...), so it is not completely trivial, but
should be doable.)

For testing purposes I have moved the relevant `ox-texinfo+.el' code
into `ox-texinfo.el', changing only how the feature has to be enabled,
and everything that worked before continues to work.  If the feature is
enabled, then my manuals are exported the same as before and with the
feature disabled org-manual.org also results in the same texi file as
before.

So I have to address the above issue and then we also have to think
about naming.  I was thinking about using the term "shorthands"; instead
of "texinfo-deffn:t" we could use "texinfo-shorthands:t".  The functions
need to be renamed too of course, but IMO simply replacing "ox-texinfo+"
with "ox-texinfo-shorthand" is quite ugly.  Do you have a suggestion for
that?  All the new functions could be placed in the "Item" section.

More precisely, there's an historical distinction between string values
and other values (symbols, numbers...). The former is set by keywords,
the latter is obtained with "options". Consequently, all the entries in
ox-texinfo's :options-alist are used to set strings.

Then I suggest to use "attr_texinfo" keyword, for example:

   #+attr_texinfo: :shorthand t
   - item...

This way, we ensure the change is local. `org-texinfo-item' already
checks :sep attribute.

In this case, there's no need to add a new keyword or extend "options".

I see no reason to change the prefix, since these functions are part of
ox-texinfo. I didn't look closely at your code, tho, so I may be wide of
the mark.

WDYT?

Sorry for the delay, I got side-tracked with many other things.

I am sure I can get it to work just fine without a need for that.
It just turns out that I haven't done so yet, because I only used the
ox-texinfo+ style in manuals that use that style exclusively.  Now
that you have signaled that there is a good change that this would be
included in Org, putting in the work to use both styles in parallel is
actually justified.

But it likely will be a few weeks until I get to work because I looked
at the current implementation again and decided that it would be better
to start over and do the work using org-element instead of at the latest
possible moment when strings are being concatenated as ox-texinfo+
currently does.

I haven't started working on the org-element based implementation yet,
but I expect that won't actually need any new function definitions so,
the question is moot anyway.  (But just in case: I agree.)

     Cheers,
     Jonas

Hello again,

  The new implementation of the proposed feature is now ready.
Unlike the old implementation it works by filtering the parse tree
(instead of doing it later by advising `org-texinfo-plain-list' and
`org-texinfo-item'), and it expects the use of description lists to
define description commands (instead of regular unordered lists).

  I have already updated the manuals of borg, epkg, forge, ghub,
magit, magit-section, transient and with-editor to this new style and
it worked very well.

  Executive summary: This adds a second, alternative style to write
(in Org files) Texinfo definition commands that closely resembles the
final Info/HMTL/PDF output instead of the intermediate Texinfo file.

  Likewise this adds a second, alternative style to group/"combine"
an @item with one or more $itemx. (See the first commit.)

  These additions are described in more detail in the manual, which I
have updated.  The other styles that are used in Org's own manual are
not affected and both styles can be used in the same manual.

     Cheers,
     Jonas

+
+Items in a description list in a Org file that begin with =Function:=

+
+As a special case the prefix =Key:= is also recognized.  No Texinfo
+definition command exists for key bindings and the output in Info
+files also lacks the =Key:= prefix.  Even so this special case is
+supported because it provides a convenient shorthand, as illustrated
+here:
+
+#+begin_example
+- Key: C-n (do-something) ::
+  This command does something.
+
+- User Option: do-something-somehow ::
+  This option controls how exactly ~do-something~ does its thing.
+#+end_example
+
+#+texinfo: @noindent
+becomes
+
+#+begin_example
+@table @asis
+@item @kbd{C-c C-c} (@code{do-something})
+@kindex C-c C-c
+@findex do-something
+This command does something.
+@end table
+
+@defopt do-something-somehow
+This option controls how exactly @code{do-something} does its thing.
+@end defopt
+#+end_example
+
+Key items don't have to specify the respective command in parenthesis
+as done above; that part is optional.
+
+You can get the same result using the alternative approach (see
+[[*Special blocks in Texinfo export]]), which is more verbose and less
+similar to the final Info/HTML/PDF output (but more similar to the
+intermediate Texinfo file):
+
+#+begin_example
+- {{{kbd(C-c C-c)}}} (~do-something~) ::
+
+  #+kindex: C-c C-c
+  #+findex: do-something
+  This command does something.
+
+,#+attr_texinfo: :options do-something-somehow
+,#+begin_defopt
+  This option controls how exactly ~do-something~ does its thing.
+,#+end_defopt
+#+end_example
+
+Regardless of which approach you use, you must define the =kbd= macro
+(see [[*Macro Replacement]]), which you can then use anywhere in the Org

Hello,

Thanks. Some comments follow.

The above is fragile, because pressing <C-c C-c> on an item will
"repair" the bullets. Therefore, you cannot support mixed bullets in the
same list.

Could you expound the docstring? Arguments are missing, and "normalize"
is vague.

The above will fail if `org-list-two-spaces-after-bullet-regexp' is
non-nil. You should compare the trimmed bullet with "+".

Anyhow, relying on mixed bullets is not great…

Simply put:

Ouch. I don't think we should expect users to define this in order to
use the feature being implemented. IOW, it should work out of the box.

I think the functions responsible for generating the Texinfo code should
handle this without relying on the macro. Of course, if that part is
factored out, the macro might, in turn, make use of it.

Could you use `rx' here?

Here, there could be a function building the key chord, and you could
wrap the result into a raw string (see `org-export-raw-string').

The alternative also isn't great (see below).

I vaguely remember having run into this feature before when using Org to
record a pros and cons list.  As a maintainer I don't like this question
but; could this feature be made optional?  (Of course one could use tags
to indicate whether an item is a pro or cons, but for such a simple use-
case that seems more work than necessary and less immediately obvious.)

This bothered me a bit too when writing it but at the same time
it seemed like overkill to replicate the docstrings of the called
functions.  How do you feel about using a hook instead?

(defvar org-texinfo--filter-parse-tree-functions
  '(org-texinfo--normalize-headlines
    org-texinfo--normalize-items)
  "List of functions the `texinfo' back-end applies to the parsed tree.
Each filter is called with three arguments: the parse tree, as
returned by `org-element-parse-buffer', the back-end, as
a symbol, and the communication channel, as a plist.  It must
return the modified parse tree to transcode.")

Do you prefer to add the hook functions as done above or should each one
be added individually using add-hook?

Done.  Is this okay?:

              (when (and next-item
                         (string-prefix-p
                          "+"
                          (org-element-property :bullet next-item)))

Or should the line-breaks go elsewhere?

> Anyhow, relying on mixed bullets is not great…

The alternative isn't great either.

For example:

- Key: C-c C-w (forge-browse-TYPE) ::

+ Key: N b I (forge-browse-issues) ::
+ Key: N b P (forge-browse-pullreqs) ::

+ Key: N b i (forge-browse-issue) ::

I am sure I am gonna make mistakes when using the latter approach.

Luckily that's already how it works; I just chose to not document the
fallback (done that now).  If the macro is not available, then @code{}
is used instead.

I tried but could not get it to work that way.  Whatever I tried
ox-texinfo insisted on breaking it by adding quotes.

I didn't go as far as to try injecting export-snippet elements into the
tree because without using org-macro-replace-all it seemed painful to do
that.  But on second thought...

Would it be okay to represent e.g. "C-c SPC" as:

   (export-snippet
    (:back-end "texinfo" :value "@kbd{C-c @key{SPC}}" :post-blank 0 :parent #2))

instead of the more painful to construct:

   (export-snippet
    (:back-end "texinfo" :value "@kbd{" :begin 317 :end 334 :post-blank 0 :parent #2))
   #("C-c " 0 4
     (:parent #2))
   (export-snippet
    (:back-end "texinfo" :value "@key{" :begin 338 :end 355 :post-blank 0 :parent #2))
   #("SPC" 0 3
     (:parent #2))
   (export-snippet
    (:back-end "texinfo" :value "}" :begin 358 :end 371 :post-blank 0 :parent #2))
   (export-snippet
    (:back-end "texinfo" :value "}" :begin 371 :end 384 :post-blank 0 :parent #2))

I think that is one of the things I tried that ox-texinfo insisted on
quoting anyway.  I might misremember, so I will have another look.
Above I suggested using an `export-snippet' element (instead of `raw');
to me that seems appropriate too.

Just use (org-export-raw-string "@kbd{C-c @key{SPC}}") instead.

`org-export-raw-string' is a recent addition in Org.

I think that's abusing export snippets. They are more user-oriented,
e.g. filters can apply to them.

Note you can write (org-export-raw-string (some-public-function "C-c
SPC")) where (some-public-function "C-c SPC") => "@kbd{C-c @key{SPC}}",
as done currently by the "kbd" macro.

You can also make two lists. I don't think we should provide "pros ans
cons list", because it has implications outside export.

`add-hook' is more for users, I think.

The line breaks do not matter much but it may fail if

True, but OTOH, the first option is not really possible. However, there
are still alternatives. For example, you could check blank lines between
items:

  - key: a ::
  - key: b ::

  - key: c ::
  - key: d ::

I suggest to require a special attribute before doing so, e.g.,

  #+attr_texinfo: :compact t
  - key: a ::
  - key: b ::

  - key: c ::
  - key: d ::

Another option would be to merge consecutive lists with such an
attribute, for the same result:

  #+attr_texinfo: :compact t
  - key: a ::
  - key: b ::

  #+attr_texinfo: :compact t
  - key: c ::
  - key: d ::


  - This is a regular list since it does not have :compact attribute.

IIRC, I did an experiment like this one when introducing matrices in
LaTeX export.

I went with that approach.

Ordered lists are transcoded to @itemize, while description lists are
transcoded to @table or some other table command.  So they cannot be
combined into one list-like thing in Texinfo.

The first two lists could be combined, but IMO it is better to only
require the :compact t once and avoid splitting the list and then
recombining the lists back into one.

     Jonas

Ps: Slightly sad about loosing the +.
    It looks very much like the x at the end of @itemx.

I named it org-texinfo-kbd-macro and wrote it so that it can be used by
the kbd macro.  I have changed doc/doc-setup.org to use it.

DEL was missing from the list of special keys.

+Likewise, the Texinfo export back-end supports two approaches to
+writing Texinfo definition commands (see [[info:texinfo::Definition
+Commands]]).  One of them uses description lists and is describe below,
+the other is described in [[*Special blocks in Texinfo export]].
+
+Items in a description list in a Org file that begin with =Function:=
+or certain other prefixes are converted using Texinfo definition
+commands.  This works even if other items in the same list do not have
+such a prefix; if necessary a single description list is converted
+using multiple tables (such as =@vtable=) and definition commands
+(such as =@defun=).
+
+#+begin_example
+- Function: org-texinfo-drawer drawer contents info ::
+  Transcode a DRAWER element from Org to Texinfo.
+#+end_example
+
+#+texinfo: @noindent
+becomes
+
+#+begin_example
+@defun org-texinfo-drawer drawer contents info ::
+  Transcode a DRAWER element from Org to Texinfo.
+@end defun
+#+end_example
+
+The recognized prefixes are =Command:=, =Function:=, =Macro:=,
+=Special Form:=, =Variable:= and =User Option:=.  These are the same
+prefixes that appear in the Info file for the respective definition
+commands.  For example a =Function:= item in the Org file is converted
+to a =@defun= command in the Texinfo file, which in turn is converted
+to a definition prefixed with =-- Function:= in the Info file.
+
+As a special case the prefix =Key:= is also recognized.  No Texinfo
+definition command exists for key bindings and the output in Info
+files also lacks the =Key:= prefix.  Even so this special case is
+supported because it provides a convenient shorthand, as illustrated
+here:
+
+#+begin_example
+- Key: C-c C-c (do-something) ::
+  This command does something.
+
+- User Option: do-something-somehow ::
+  This option controls how exactly ~do-something~ does its thing.
+#+end_example
+
+#+texinfo: @noindent
+becomes
+
+#+begin_example
+@table @asis
+@item @kbd{C-c C-c} (@code{do-something})
+@kindex C-c C-c
+@findex do-something
+This command does something.
+@end table
+
+@defopt do-something-somehow
+This option controls how exactly @code{do-something} does its thing.
+@end defopt

The code is the same as in v3, but I noticed that I had forgotten
to update one of the doc-strings, so that's fixed here.

     Cheers,

 #+end_example
 
+Likewise, the Texinfo export back-end supports two approaches to
+writing Texinfo definition commands (see [[info:texinfo::Definition
+Commands]]).  One of them uses description lists and is describe below,
+the other is described in [[*Special blocks in Texinfo export]].
+
+Items in a description list in a Org file that begin with =Function:=
+or certain other prefixes are converted using Texinfo definition
+commands.  This works even if other items in the same list do not have
+such a prefix; if necessary a single description list is converted
+using multiple tables (such as =@vtable=) and definition commands
+(such as =@defun=).
+
+#+begin_example
+- Function: org-texinfo-drawer drawer contents info ::
+  Transcode a DRAWER element from Org to Texinfo.
+#+end_example
+
+#+texinfo: @noindent
+becomes
+
+#+begin_example
+@defun org-texinfo-drawer drawer contents info ::
+  Transcode a DRAWER element from Org to Texinfo.
+@end defun
+#+end_example
+
+The recognized prefixes are =Command:=, =Function:=, =Macro:=,
+=Special Form:=, =Variable:= and =User Option:=.  These are the same
+prefixes that appear in the Info file for the respective definition
+commands.  For example a =Function:= item in the Org file is converted
+to a =@defun= command in the Texinfo file, which in turn is converted
+to a definition prefixed with =-- Function:= in the Info file.
+
+As a special case the prefix =Key:= is also recognized.  No Texinfo
+definition command exists for key bindings and the output in Info
+files also lacks the =Key:= prefix.  Even so this special case is
+supported because it provides a convenient shorthand, as illustrated
+here:
+
+#+begin_example
+- Key: C-c C-c (do-something) ::
+  This command does something.
+
+- User Option: do-something-somehow ::
+  This option controls how exactly ~do-something~ does its thing.
+#+end_example
+
+#+texinfo: @noindent
+becomes
+
+#+begin_example
+@table @asis
+@item @kbd{C-c C-c} (@code{do-something})
+@kindex C-c C-c
+@findex do-something
+This command does something.

+
+@defopt do-something-somehow
+This option controls how exactly @code{do-something} does its thing.

AFAICT the variable is not defined in the patch.

This change is not needed. Org markup is capitalized in examples to make
it stand out. It's not great because 1) it is ugly 2) users may think
Org syntax is uppercase. But changing that is not the point of this patch.

I suggest to use `org-export-get-next-element', which is not as
low-level as this.

Be careful, (org-element-property :post-blank item) may be nil.
I suggest to use (eq 1 (org-element-property :post-blank item)) instead.

OK, but I think this is a bit convoluted. I wonder if we need
`org-texinfo--combine-items' at all. I.e., `org-texinfo-item' could
decide to prefix current tag with @itemx if 1) the item is empty 2) the
list has a non-nil :compact attribute 3) there's another item following
it. IOW, we do not need to rely on an :itemx property.

WDYT?

Are you only referring to the spaces that should be replaced with a tab?
"item (nconc\n" is also a bit weird so I changed that to

	(org-element-set-contents
	 item
	 (nconc (mapcar (lambda (key) `(keyword (:key "KINDEX" :value ,key))) kindex)
		(mapcar (lambda (cmd) `(keyword (:key "FINDEX" :value ,cmd))) findex)

Sorry about that; I also don't like it when contributors sneak in
cosmetic changes.

The argument was already documented before I touched this, and
additionally the given name was incorrect.  Should I leave this
untouched to avoid making unrelated cosmetic changes or should
I remove this line?

This one is an addition so I am dropping it.  (The reason I originally

Okay changed.

In the next commit, in org-texinfo--massage-key-item, I am also using
the low-level approach.  That function isn't passed INFO, so I am unsure
what to do there.  Looking at org-export-get-next-element it seems fine
to just pass it nil as INFO.

I think so, but its bed time.  I'll look into it tomorrow.

I have fixed that but the result is quite detailed because I didn't
manage to keep it short and actually correct at the same time.

I have noticed that I accidentally called it ":combine" in the
documentation and have fixed that.  (Do you think we should stick
to ":compact"?)

I would actually prefer to be able to set this once per file, not
least because this looks a bit weird.

   #+attr_texinfo: :compact t
   - key: a ::
   not "compact"

   - key: c ::
   - key: d ::
   "compact"

That would seem like a fix for that issue, but as I mentioned before
that doesn't work because it results in two lists, each with one @item
and one @itemx.

You actually suggested that in your first reply:

>>    #+TEXINFO_DEFFN: t

You later indicated that you would prefer to specify this per-list.  I
implemented the approach that uses "+" to indicate @itemx items, because
that seemed even nicer to me (because more explicit) but you didn't like
that and so I went with the alternative that you suggested in response
to that attempt.

But I would like to take a step back and ask if

>   #+options: texinfo+:t

still seems like a good idea to you.  (If so, should that be used
instead of the per-list approach or as an alternative?)

+Org does not provide any markup for key bindings that corresponds to

 #+end_example
 
+Likewise, the Texinfo export back-end supports two approaches to
+writing Texinfo definition commands (see [[info:texinfo::Definition
+Commands]]).  One of them uses description lists and is describe below,
+the other is described in [[*Special blocks in Texinfo export]].
+
+Items in a description list in a Org file that begin with =Function:=
+or certain other prefixes are converted using Texinfo definition
+commands.  This works even if other items in the same list do not have
+such a prefix; if necessary a single description list is converted
+using multiple tables (such as =@vtable=) and definition commands
+(such as =@defun=).
+
+#+begin_example
+- Function: org-texinfo-drawer drawer contents info ::
+  Transcode a DRAWER element from Org to Texinfo.
+#+end_example
+
+#+texinfo: @noindent
+becomes
+
+#+begin_example
+@defun org-texinfo-drawer drawer contents info ::
+  Transcode a DRAWER element from Org to Texinfo.
+@end defun
+#+end_example
+
+The recognized prefixes are =Command:=, =Function:=, =Macro:=,
+=Special Form:=, =Variable:= and =User Option:=.  These are the same
+prefixes that appear in the Info file for the respective definition
+commands.  For example a =Function:= item in the Org file is converted
+to a =@defun= command in the Texinfo file, which in turn is converted
+to a definition prefixed with =-- Function:= in the Info file.
+
+As a special case the prefix =Key:= is also recognized.  No Texinfo
+definition command exists for key bindings and the output in Info
+files also lacks the =Key:= prefix.  Even so this special case is
+supported because it provides a convenient shorthand, as illustrated
+here:
+
+#+begin_example
+- Key: C-c C-c (do-something) ::
+  This command does something.
+
+- User Option: do-something-somehow ::
+  This option controls how exactly ~do-something~ does its thing.
+#+end_example
+
+#+texinfo: @noindent
+becomes
+
+#+begin_example
+@table @asis
+@item @kbd{C-c C-c} (@code{do-something})
+@kindex C-c C-c
+@findex do-something
+This command does something.
+@end table
+
+@defopt do-something-somehow
+This option controls how exactly @code{do-something} does its thing.
+@end defopt
+#+end_example
+
+#+texinfo: @noindent
+Command in parenthesis, as done above, is optional.

Yes, `org-texinfo--combine-items' wasn't necessary and its better
without it.  But just like when crossing the street we now have to look
in both directions.  ;)

I have kept the :compact and :sep code-paths apart because mixing them
would result in something that resembles the code you called convoluted
and because I think it would not make sense to mix the two styles in the
same list anyway.

This fixes the small last minute defect in v4 and removes a mention
of an unused argument like you told me too.

This also adds an export option to enable the "compact itemx" syntax
for all lists in a file.  I mentioned that I would like to be able to
enable this feature for a complete file but haven't heard back yet.

I think it makes sense to allow enabling this per file because I would
expect that it is much more likely that someone would want to use this
feature for all lists or for no lists at all, than it is for them to
only want to use it for certain lists.

I picked "compact-itemx" as the name of the export option but it seems
that the names of most other options are much shorter, so maybe just
"itemx" would be better.  I am a bit unsure about the name of the
variable as well.

     Regards,
     Jonas

 #+end_example
 
+Likewise, the Texinfo export back-end supports two approaches to
+writing Texinfo definition commands (see [[info:texinfo::Definition
+Commands]]).  One of them uses description lists and is describe below,
+the other is described in [[*Special blocks in Texinfo export]].
+
+Items in a description list in a Org file that begin with =Function:=
+or certain other prefixes are converted using Texinfo definition
+commands.  This works even if other items in the same list do not have
+such a prefix; if necessary a single description list is converted
+using multiple tables (such as =@vtable=) and definition commands
+(such as =@defun=).
+
+#+begin_example
+- Function: org-texinfo-drawer drawer contents info ::
+  Transcode a DRAWER element from Org to Texinfo.
+#+end_example
+
+#+texinfo: @noindent
+becomes
+
+#+begin_example
+@defun org-texinfo-drawer drawer contents info ::
+  Transcode a DRAWER element from Org to Texinfo.
+@end defun
+#+end_example
+
+The recognized prefixes are =Command:=, =Function:=, =Macro:=,
+=Special Form:=, =Variable:= and =User Option:=.  These are the same
+prefixes that appear in the Info file for the respective definition
+commands.  For example a =Function:= item in the Org file is converted
+to a =@defun= command in the Texinfo file, which in turn is converted
+to a definition prefixed with =-- Function:= in the Info file.
+
+As a special case the prefix =Key:= is also recognized.  No Texinfo
+definition command exists for key bindings and the output in Info
+files also lacks the =Key:= prefix.  Even so this special case is
+supported because it provides a convenient shorthand, as illustrated
+here:
+
+#+begin_example
+- Key: C-c C-c (do-something) ::
+  This command does something.
+
+- User Option: do-something-somehow ::
+  This option controls how exactly ~do-something~ does its thing.
+#+end_example
+
+#+texinfo: @noindent

+
+#+begin_example

+@item @kbd{C-c C-c} (@code{do-something})
+@kindex C-c C-c
+@findex do-something

+
+@defopt do-something-somehow
+This option controls how exactly @code{do-something} does its thing.
+@end defopt
