+The @@HContract symbol reduces the size of its right parameter to a
+reasonable minimum (after paragraph breaking). For example,
+@ID @Code "5i @Wide @HContract { A |1rt B }"
+has result
+@ID { 5i @Wide @HContract { A |1rt B } }
+in which the B is much closer to the A than it would otherwise have
+been. @@VContract is similar, but in a vertical direction. See
+Section {@NumberOf size} for a more extensive discussion.
