+
+The Texinfo export back-end also supports two approaches to writing
+Texinfo definition commands (see [[info:texinfo::Definition Commands]]).
+One of them uses description lists and is described below, the other
+relies on special blocks (see [[*Special blocks in Texinfo export]]).
+
+Items in a description list in a Org file that begin with =Function:=
+or certain other prefixes are converted using Texinfo definition
+commands. This works even if other items in the same list do not have
+such a prefix; if necessary a single description list is converted
+using multiple tables (such as =@vtable=) and definition commands
+(such as =@defun=).
+
+#+begin_example
+- Function: org-texinfo-drawer drawer contents info ::
+ Transcode a DRAWER element from Org to Texinfo.
+#+end_example

+becomes
+
+#+begin_example
+@defun org-texinfo-drawer drawer contents info ::
+ Transcode a DRAWER element from Org to Texinfo.
+@end defun
#+end_example
+The recognized prefixes are =Command:=, =Function:=, =Macro:=,
+=Special Form:=, =Variable:= and =User Option:=. These are the same
+prefixes that appear in the Info file for the respective definition
+commands. For example a =Function:= item in the Org file is converted
+to a =@defun= command in the Texinfo file, which in turn is converted
+to a definition prefixed with =-- Function:= in the Info file.
+
+As a special case the prefix =Key:= is also recognized. No Texinfo
+definition command exists for key bindings and the output in Info
+files also lacks the =Key:= prefix. Even so this special case is
+supported because it provides a convenient shorthand, as illustrated
+here:
+
+#+begin_example
+- Key: C-c C-c (do-something) ::
+ This command does something.

+- User Option: do-something-somehow ::
