`Top' Node Title
----------------

   Sometimes, you will want to place an `@top' sectioning command line
containing the title of the document immediately after the `@node Top'
line (makeinfo top command, for
more information).

   For example, the beginning of the Top node of this manual contains an
`@top' sectioning command, a short description, and edition and version
information.  It looks like this:

     ...
     @end titlepage
     
     @ifinfo
     @node Top, Copying, (dir), (dir)
     @top Texinfo
     
     Texinfo is a documentation system...
     
     This is edition...
     ...
     @end ifinfo
     
     @menu
     * Copying::                 Texinfo is freely
                                   redistributable.
     * Overview::                What is Texinfo?
     ...
     @end menu

   In a `Top' node, the `Previous', and `Up' nodes usually refer to the
top level directory of the whole Info system, which is called `(dir)'.
The `Next' node refers to the first node that follows the main or master
menu, which is usually the copying permissions, introduction, or first
chapter.
