Right, and for that reason it's a good idea to use @group in this
case, to make sure @print{} doesn't get separated from the preceding
code fragment.

I actually suggest to have the Texinfo manual be loaded in some Info
buffer in your Emacs sessions; that's what I do.  Then you can quickly
consult it whenever the need arises.  That manual is very well
indexed, so finding what you need is usually a snap.

Right.  Also, the 2-argument form of @xref commands can also sometimes
land you on the text that is the second arg (at least with some Info
readers).
