+<code>newline</code> element.
+This element has no attributes and no content.

+You can insert eny piece of text into a specific output target by using
+an escape element. An escape element is an element with the name of the
+output format and a single <code>command</code> attribute.
+For example, the <code>LaTeX</code> is used to put arbitrary text into
+the output of <code>xml2latex</code>.
+The content of its <code>command</code> attribute is copied literally
+into the output.
+One of the applications of the <code>LaTeX</code> escape element is to
+control the first line indent of a paragraph in LaTeX:
+
+<verbatim>
+&lt;LaTeX command='\setlength{\parindent}{0cm}'/&gt;
+</verbatim>
+
+Note that it is not possible to create HTML tags in this manner.
