If a web file is included via `@I', *Note @I_:: for example

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- @I formats.hweb -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

then the `-i' option means to read and process the web file, but don't print its contents. This option is often used for large files of macro definitions, formats, or typedef statements that must be included at the beginning of even very short web files; it clutters things up to print such header files all the time.

Note that files included via `@i' do not respond to `-i' or `-i!'.
