These discussions are -necessarily sketchy because there isn't room in the examples for all the -information you'd need. The capsule summary of commands -(\chapterref{capsule}) -and the index will help you -locate the complete explanation of every \TeX\ feature shown in the -examples. - -Because we've designed the examples to illustrate -many things at once, some examples contain a great variety of -typographical effects.
