Do you know whether the lines
@c %**start of header
and
@c %**end of header
are still useful for anyone? The manual says
The @code{@@c ...header} lines above which surround the
@code{@@setfilename} and @code{@@settitle} lines allow you to process,
within Emacs, just part of the Texinfo source. (@xref{Start of
Header}.)
but I've never really understood what this means.
