<keyword>
The <keyword>
element identifies
a keyword or token, such as a single value from an enumerated list,
the name of a command or parameter, product name, or a lookup key
for a message.
A keyword contains any text that has a unique or key-like value, such as a product name. Where
there is an element that has a better meaning for what you are describing, use that element. The
<keyword>
element is a generic element; use it when no other element applies.
The <keyword>
element can also be used to contain reusable text.
Specialized elements derived from <keyword>
might also have extended processing, such as different
formatting or automatic indexing.
All <keyword>
or <indexterm>
elements in the
<keywords>
metadata element are considered part of the topic's
metadata and should be processed as appropriate for the given output medium.
While the <keyword>
element can be used inline, the <keywords>
element is not an
inline element. The <keywords>
element only appears in the
<topicmeta>
or <prolog>
elements; it is
used to specify keywords that apply to the topic.
