The `@headings' Command
-----------------------

  The `@headings' command is rarely used.  It specifies what kind of
page headings and footings to print on each page.  Usually, this is
controlled by the `@setchapternewpage' command.  You need the
`@headings' command only if the `@setchapternewpage' command does not
do what you want, or if you want to turn off pre-defined page headings
prior to defining your own.  Write an `@headings' command immediately
after the `@end titlepage' command.

  You can use `@headings' as follows:

`@headings off'
     Turn off printing of page headings.

`@headings single'
     Turn on page headings appropriate for single-sided printing.

`@headings double'
`@headings on'
     Turn on page headings appropriate for double-sided printing.  The
     two commands, `@headings on' and `@headings double', are
     synonymous.

`@headings singleafter'
`@headings doubleafter'
     Turn on `single' or `double' headings, respectively, after the
     current page is output.

`@headings on'
     Turn on page headings: `single' if `@setchapternewpage on',
     `double' otherwise.

  For example, suppose you write `@setchapternewpage off' before the
`@titlepage' command to tell TeX to start a new chapter on the same
page as the end of the last chapter.  This command also causes TeX to
typeset page headers for single-sided printing.  To cause TeX to
typeset for double sided printing, write `@headings double' after the
`@end titlepage' command.

  You can stop TeX from generating any page headings at all by writing
`@headings off' on a line of its own immediately after the line
containing the `@end titlepage' command, like this:

     @end titlepage
     @headings off

The `@headings off' command overrides the `@end titlepage' command,
which would otherwise cause TeX to print page headings.

  You can also specify your own style of page heading and footing.
