As Gavin said, they are generated automatically if there are sectioning commands and no explicit nodes directions. Starting with Texinfo 7.1 there is another feature, the description of the node may also be automatically generated using the @nodedescription or @nodedescriptionblock commands. @node my node @section A section @nodedescription This will be formatted as a description You may still want to format menus explicitly if the automaic formatting is not what you expect, but then you have to format the whole menu. -- Pat
