12 pg 11-2 under "SYNTAX OF INFO SEGMENTS"
13      Replace the "Title" paragraph with the following:
14 
15      Title
16 
17           Some rules  apply to all  three types of info segments.  The
18      first line in each info segment (or entrypoint description within
19      a subroutine info segment) must be a brief  title line, beginning
20      with  the date of the  last  modification.  The  title should  be
21      appropriate for a table of  contents; for command  or  subroutine
22      descriptions it will give  the name(s)  of the  program including
23      abbreviations.  The date should be in iso_date format.
24 
25           Examples of title lines:

30                  1985-09-23  ioa_
31                   ...
32                  :Entry: ioa_: nnl:  1981-09-19  ioa_, ioa_$nnl
33 
34      The last example above shows titles for a subroutine with several
35      entrypoints.  The first title line uses the standard title format
36      for the  introductory section of  the info segment;  this section
37      describes  the  purpose and  common  characteristics  of all  the
38      subroutine's  entrypoints.   Subsequent  sections  describe  each
39      entrypoint  or  group of  entrypoints  sharing  a common  calling
40      sequence.  Each section begins with  an :Entry: title line naming
41      the entrypoint(s) followed by a  typical title line with iso_date
42      and the full  subroutine name(s) described by  that section.  The
43      :Entry: and colon-separated names allow  the help command to skip
44      to the  description of  a particular  entrypoint, and  to produce
45      output for its list_entry_points request.
