<span id="lisp"></span><span id="index-lisp"></span>
<span id="index-Lisp-example"></span>
<p>The <code>@lisp</code> command is used for Lisp code. It is synonymous
with the <code>@example</code> command.
</p>
<div class="lisp">
<pre class="lisp">This is an example of text written between an
<code>@lisp</code> command and an <code>@end lisp</code> command.
</pre></div>
<p>Use <code>@lisp</code> instead of <code>@example</code> to preserve information
regarding the nature of the example. This is useful, for example, if
you write a function that evaluates only and all the Lisp code in a
Texinfo file. Then you can use the Texinfo file as a Lisp
library. Mark the end of <code>@lisp</code> with <code>@end lisp</code> on a line
by itself.
