<a class="anchor" id="cartouche"></a><a class="index-entry-id" id="index-cartouche"></a>

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-Rounded-rectangles_002c-around-text"></a>
<p>In a printed manual, the <code class="code">@cartouche</code> command draws a box with
rounded corners around its contents. In HTML, a normal rectangle is
drawn. <code class="code">@cartouche</code> has no effect in Info output.
</p>
<p>You can use this command to further highlight an example or quotation.
For instance, you could write a manual in which one type of example is
surrounded by a cartouche for emphasis.
</p>
<p>For example,
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">@cartouche
@example
% pwd
/usr/local/share/emacs
@end example
@end cartouche
</pre></div>
<p>surrounds the two-line example with a box with rounded corners, in the
printed manual.
</p>
<p>The output from the example looks like this (if you&rsquo;re reading this in
Info, you&rsquo;ll see the <code class="code">@cartouche</code> had no effect):
</p>
<table class="cartouche" border="1"><tr><td>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">% pwd
/usr/local/share/emacs
</pre></div>
</td></tr></table>
<p><code class="code">@cartouche</code> also implies <code class="code">@group</code> (see <a class="pxref" href="_0040group.html"><code class="code">@group</code>: Prevent Page Breaks</a>).
