114.0. "Revision info tag" by FNYFS::WYNFORD (The Rented Loony) Mon Mar 16 1987 12:00

    I've searched through the doc'n but can't find the answer...
    
    How do I get multiple revision info lines now? I used to use the
    backslash but that now gives an error. What I want is:
    
    Revision/Update information: RSTS 8.0
                                 OP/M 2.3
                                 LARS 3.4b

    <revision_info>(RSTS 8.0<line>
    OP/M 2.3<line>
    LARS 3.4b)
    
    - now that we have a <line> tag, it's explicit.

    Thank you - pity I didn't spot that <line> can be used all over
    the place!
    
    This leads to a problem being noted by people over here when trying
    to find things in the current user guides. There is no
    "cross-referencing" available to point the user in the right direction.
    For example, someone wanted to do bolding: I knew straight off to
    use <emphasis> but he didn't because he looked first for a tag
    beginning with the letter B. He would prefer a small table that
    lists actions and related tags - this would cut down time searching
    for the more obscure parts of DOCUMENT as you woyuld look under
    "bolding" or "highlighting" or whatever and find a reference to
    the suggested tags.
    
    Nothing like adding to your workload is there? :-)
