Helper macros for rendering section titles

The section-base d.t.d. contains several helper macros which can (should) be used when customizing the rendering of section titles:

<sectional-short|body>

<sectional-short-italic|body>

<sectional-short-bold|body>

These macros should be used for rendering “short section titles”, for which the section body starts immediately at the right of the title. Usually, titles of paragraphs and subparagraphs are rendered in a short fashion, while the other section titles span over the entire width of a paragraph.

<sectional-normal|body>

<sectional-normal-italic|body>

<sectional-short-bold|body>

These macros should be used for rendering “normal left-aligned section titles”. Such titles span over the entire paragraph width.

<sectional-centered|body>

<sectional-centered-italic|body>

<sectional-centered-bold|body>

These macros should be used for rendering “normal centered section titles”. Such titles span over the entire paragraph width.
