11.4.3 @itemx
: Second and Subsequent Items
Use the @itemx
command inside a table when you have two or more
first column entries for the same item, each of which should appear on a
line of its own.
Use @item
for the first entry, and @itemx
for all
subsequent entries; @itemx
must always follow an @item
command, with no blank line intervening.
The @itemx
command works exactly like @item
except
that it does not generate extra vertical space above the first column
text. If you have multiple consecutive @itemx
commands, do
not insert any blank lines between them.
For example,
@table @code @item upcase @itemx downcase These two functions accept a character or a string as argument, and return the corresponding uppercase (lowercase) character or string. @end table
This produces:
upcase
downcase
These two functions accept a character or a string as argument, and return the corresponding uppercase (lowercase) character or string.
(Note also that this example illustrates multi-line supporting text in a two-column table.)
