Adding documentation, if we are not talking about writing a whole new document, basically means going by analogy with the material you are augmenting and looking what it uses. With Texinfo that's quite easier than with AsciiDoc since you can clearly see what is relevant Texinfo code and what is just incidental ASCII art. -- David Kastrup
