Sometimes, you will want to place an @top sectioning command line containing the title of the document immediately after the @node Top line (see section The @top Sectioning 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.
