`@ftable' and `@vtable'
-----------------------

  The `@ftable' and `@vtable' commands are the same as the `@table'
command except that `@ftable' automatically enters each of the items in
the first column of the table into the index of functions and `@vtable'
automatically enters each of the items in the first column of the table
into the index of variables.  This simplifies the task of creating
indices.  Only the items on the same line as the `@item' commands are
indexed, and they are indexed in exactly the form that they appear on
that line.  Note: Indices, for more information about indices.

  Begin a two-column table using `@ftable' or `@vtable' by writing the
@-command at the beginning of a line, followed on the same line by an
argument that is a Texinfo command such as `@code', exactly as you
would for an `@table' command; and end the table with an `@end ftable'
or `@end vtable' command on a line by itself.

  See the example for `@table' in the previous section.
