`@cartouche': Rounded Rectangles Around Examples
================================================

  In a printed manual, the `@cartouche' command draws a box with
rounded corners around its contents.  You can use this command to
further highlight an example or quotation.  For instance, you could
write a manual in which one type of example is surrounded by a cartouche
for emphasis.

  `@cartouche' affects only the printed manual; it has no effect in
other output files.

  For example,

     @example
     @cartouche
     % pwd
     /usr/local/share/emacs
     @end cartouche
     @end example

surrounds the two-line example with a box with rounded corners, in the
printed manual.
