+argument (i.e., something which looks like a macro argument) as a horizontal
+box rather than as a real macro argument.  The \"arguments\" are stored as if
+they had been saved by @code{\\savebox} or by the @code{lrbox} environment.
+Grouping tokens @code{\\bgroup} and @code{\\egroup} may be used, which allows
+the user to have the beginning and end of a group in different macro
+invocations, or to place them in the begin and end code of an environment.
+Arguments may contain verbatim material or other special use of characters.
+The macros were designed for use within other macros.")
