 <p>After the <code class="code">@multitable</code> command defining the column widths (see
 the previous section), you begin each row in the body of a multitable
 with <code class="code">@item</code>, and separate the column entries with <code class="code">@tab</code>.
 Line breaks are not special within the table body, and you may break
 input lines in your source file as necessary.

 <p>You can also use <code class="code">@headitem</code> instead of <code class="code">@item</code> to produce
 a <em class="dfn">heading row</em>.  The TeX output for such a row is in bold, and
 the HTML and DocBook output uses the <code class="code">&lt;thead&gt;</code> tag.  In Info, the

 <p>The command <code class="code">@headitemfont</code> can be used in templates when the
 entries in a <code class="code">@headitem</code> row need to be used in a template.  It
 is a synonym for <code class="code">@b</code>, but using <code class="code">@headitemfont</code> avoids
 any dependency on that particular font style, in case we provide a way
 to change it in the future.
