I just finished uploading the Texinfo manual and it seems to be pretty
far from TeX in look and feel.  I was surprised to see no mention in
the manual of how new Texinfo commands may be written in terms of
existing ones.  

Is one supposed to say @iftex \def???
But that would screw up things when you try to use the macro in the
main text, and the info file would not reflect that definition.

        -ans.
