<span id="display"></span><span id="index-display"></span>
<span id="index-Display-formatting"></span>

<p>The <code>@display</code> command begins another kind of environment, where
the font is left unchanged, not switched to typewriter as with
<code>@example</code>.  Each line of input still produces a line of output,
and the output is still indented.
</p>
<div class="display">
<pre class="display">This is an example of text written between a <code>@display</code> command
and an <code>@end display</code> command.  The <code>@display</code> command
indents the text, but does not fill it.
</pre></div>

<span id="index-smalldisplay"></span>
<p>Texinfo also provides the environment <code>@smalldisplay</code>, which is
like <code>@display</code> but uses a smaller font size.
See <a href="_0040small_2026.html"><code>@small&hellip;</code></a>.
