 Nodes
 *****
 
   "Nodes" are the primary segments of a Texinfo file.  They do not
 themselves impose a hierarchical or any other kind of structure on a
 file.  Nodes contain "node pointers" that name other nodes, and can
 contain "menus" which are lists of nodes.  In Info, the movement
 commands can carry you to a pointed-to node or to a node listed in a
 menu.  Node pointers and menus provide structure for Info files just as
 chapters, sections, subsections, and the like, provide structure for
 printed books.
