3.7.1 @documentdescription: Summary Text

When producing HTML output for a document, makeinfo writes a ‘<meta>’ element in the ‘<head>’ to give some idea of the content of the document. By default, this description is the title of the document, taken from the @settitle command (see @settitle). To change this, use the @documentdescription environment, as in:

@documentdescription
descriptive text.
@end documentdescription

This will produce the following output in the ‘<head>’ of the HTML:

<meta name=description content="descriptive text.">

@documentdescription must be specified before the first node of the document.
