<p>Texinfo mode provides special features for working with Texinfo files.
You can:
</p>
<ul>
<li> Insert frequently used @-commands.
</li><li> Automatically create <code>@node</code> lines.
</li><li> Show the structure of a Texinfo source file.
</li><li> Automatically create or update the ‘Next’,
‘Previous’, and ‘Up’ pointers of a node.
</li><li> Automatically create or update menus.
</li><li> Automatically create a master menu.
</li><li> Format a part or all of a file for Info.
</li><li> Typeset and print part or all of a file.
</li></ul>
<p>Perhaps the two most helpful features are those for inserting frequently
used @-commands and for creating node pointers and menus.
