  the digit keys run the command @code{Info-nth-menu-item}.
  
!   If your display supports multiple fonts, and you are using Emacs'
! Info mode to read Info files, the @samp{*} for the fifth menu item
! stands out, either in color or in some other attribute, such as
! underline, and so is the @samp{*} for the ninth item; this makes it
! easy to see at a glance which number to use for an item.
  
!   Some terminals don't support colors or underlining.  If you need to
! actually count items, it is better to use @kbd{m} instead, and specify
! the name, or use @key{TAB} to quickly move between menu items.
  
! @unnumberedsubsec @kbd{e} makes Info document editable
  
  @kindex e @r{(Info mode)}

  edit the Info file, so typing @kbd{e} there goes to the end of the
  current node.
+ 
+ @subheading @kbd{M-n} creates a new independent Info buffer in Emacs
+ 
+ @kindex M-n @r{(Info mode)}
+ @findex clone-buffer
+ @cindex multiple Info buffers
+   If you are reading Info in Emacs, you can select a new independent
+ Info buffer in another window by typing @kbd{M-n}.  The new buffer
+ starts out as an exact copy of the old one, but you will be able to
+ move independently between nodes in the two buffers.  (In Info mode,
+ @kbd{M-n} runs the Emacs command @code{clone-buffer}.)
+ 
+   In Emacs Info, you can also produce new Info buffers by giving a
+ numeric prefix argument to the @kbd{m} and @kbd{g} commands.  @kbd{C-u
+ m} and @kbd{C-u g} go to a new node in exactly the same way that
+ @kbd{m} and @kbd{g} do, but they do so in a new Info buffer which they
+ select in another window.
