 Formatting Mistakes
 *******************
 
   Besides mistakes in the content of your documentation, there are two
 kinds of mistake you can make with Texinfo: you can make mistakes with
 @-commands, and you can make mistakes with the structure of the nodes
 and chapters.
 
   Emacs has two tools for catching the @-command mistakes and two for
 catching structuring mistakes.
 
   For finding problems with @-commands, you can run TeX or a region
 formatting command on the region that has a problem; indeed, you can
 run these commands on each region as you write it.
 
   For finding problems with the structure of nodes and chapters, you
 can use `C-c C-s' (`texinfo-show-structure') and the related `occur'
 command and you can use the `M-x Info-validate' command.
