+
+  \begin{itemize}
+  \item This tutorial can be compiled on the command-line with:
+
+  @{text [display] "$ isabelle make"}
+
+  You very likely need a recent snapshot of Isabelle in order to compile
+  the tutorial. Some parts of the tutorial also rely on compilation with
+  PolyML.
+
+  \item You can include references to other Isabelle manuals using the 
+  reference names from those manuals. To do this the following
+  four \LaTeX{} commands are defined:
+  
+  \begin{center}
+  \begin{tabular}{l|c|c}
+   & Chapters & Sections\\\hline
+  Implementation Manual & @{text "\\ichcite{\<dots>}"} & @{text "\\isccite{\<dots>}"}\\
+  Isar Reference Manual & @{text "\\rchcite{\<dots>}"} & @{text "\\rsccite{\<dots>}"}\\
+  \end{tabular}
+  \end{center}
+
+  So @{text "\\ichcite{ch:logic}"} yields a reference for the chapter about logic 
+  in the implementation manual, namely \ichcite{ch:logic}.
+
+  \item There are various document antiquotations defined for the 
+  tutorial. They allow to check the written text against the current
+  Isabelle code and also allow to show responses of the ML-compiler.
+  Therefore authors are strongly encouraged to use antiquotations wherever
+  appropriate.
+  
+  The following antiquotations are defined:
+
+  \begin{itemize}
+  \item[$\bullet$] @{text "@{ML \"expr\" for vars in structs}"} should be used
+  for displaying any ML-ex\-pression, because the antiquotation checks whether
+  the expression is valid ML-code. The @{text "for"}- and @{text
+  "in"}-arguments are optional. The former is used for evaluating open
+  expressions by giving a list of free variables. The latter is used to
+  indicate in which structure or structures the ML-expression should be
+  evaluated. Examples are:
+  
+  \begin{center}\small
+  \begin{tabular}{lll}
+  @{text "@{ML \"1 + 3\"}"}         &                 & @{ML "1 + 3"}\\
+  @{text "@{ML \"a + b\" for a b}"} & \;\;produce\;\; & @{ML "a + b" for a b}\\
+  @{text "@{ML Ident in OuterLex}"} &                 & @{ML Ident in OuterLex}\\
+  \end{tabular}
+  \end{center}
+
+  \item[$\bullet$] @{text "@{ML_response \"expr\" \"pat\"}"} should be used to
+  display ML-expressions and their response.  The first expression is checked
+  like in the antiquotation @{text "@{ML \"expr\"}"}; the second is a pattern
+  that specifies the result the first expression produces. This pattern can
+  contain @{text [quotes] "\<dots>"} for parts that you like to omit. The response of the
+  first expression will be checked against this pattern. Examples are:
+
+  \begin{center}\small
+  \begin{tabular}{l}
+  @{text "@{ML_response \"1+2\" \"3\"}"}\\
+  @{text "@{ML_response \"(1+2,3)\" \"(3,\<dots>)\"}"}
+  \end{tabular}
+  \end{center}
+
+  which produce respectively
+
+  \begin{center}\small
+  \begin{tabular}{p{3cm}p{3cm}}
+  @{ML_response "1+2" "3"} &  
+  @{ML_response "(1+2,3)" "(3,\<dots>)"}
+  \end{tabular}
+  \end{center}
+  
+  Note that this antiquotation can only be used when the result can be
+  constructed: it does not work when the code produces an exception or returns 
+  an abstract datatype (like @{ML_type thm} or @{ML_type cterm}).
+
+  \item[$\bullet$] @{text "@{ML_response_fake \"expr\" \"pat\"}"} works just
+  like the antiquotation @{text "@{ML_response \"expr\" \"pat\"}"} above,
+  except that the result-specification is not checked. Use this antiquotation
+  when the result cannot be constructed or the code generates an
+  exception. Examples are:
+
+  \begin{center}\small
+  \begin{tabular}{ll}
+  @{text "@{ML_response_fake"} & @{text "\"cterm_of @{theory} @{term \\\"a + b = c\\\"}\"}"}\\
+                               & @{text "\"a + b = c\"}"}\smallskip\\ 
+  @{text "@{ML_response_fake"} & @{text "\"($$ \\\"x\\\") (explode \\\"world\\\")\""}\\ 
+                               & @{text "\"Exception FAIL raised\"}"}
+  \end{tabular}
+  \end{center}
+
+  which produce respectively
+
+  \begin{center}\small
+  \begin{tabular}{p{7.2cm}}
+  @{ML_response_fake "cterm_of @{theory} @{term \"a + b = c\"}" "a + b = c"}\smallskip\\
+  @{ML_response_fake "($$ \"x\") (explode \"world\")" "Exception FAIL raised"}
+  \end{tabular}
+  \end{center}
+  
+  This output mimics to some extend what the user sees when running the
+  code.
+
+  \item[$\bullet$] @{text "@{ML_response_fake_both \"expr\" \"pat\"}"} can be
+  used to show erroneous code. Neither the code nor the response will be
+  checked. An example is:
+
+  \begin{center}\small
+  \begin{tabular}{ll}
+  @{text "@{ML_response_fake_both"} & @{text "\"@{cterm \\\"1 + True\\\"}\""}\\
+                                    & @{text "\"Type unification failed \<dots>\"}"}
+  \end{tabular}
+  \end{center}
+
+  \item[$\bullet$] @{text "@{ML_file \"name\"}"} should be used when
+  referring to a file. It checks whether the file exists.  An example
+  is 
+
+  @{text [display] "@{ML_file \"Pure/General/basics.ML\"}"}
+  \end{itemize}
+
+  The listed antiquotations honour options including @{text "[display]"} and 
+  @{text "[quotes]"}. For example
+
+  \begin{center}\small
+  @{text "@{ML [quotes] \"\\\"foo\\\" ^ \\\"bar\\\"\"}"} \;\;produces\;\; @{text [quotes] "foobar"}
+  \end{center}
+
+  whereas
+  
+  \begin{center}\small
+  @{text "@{ML \"\\\"foo\\\" ^ \\\"bar\\\"\"}"} \;\;produces only\;\; @{text "foobar"}
+  \end{center}
+  
+  \item Functions and value bindings cannot be defined inside antiquotations; they need
+  to be included inside \isacommand{ML}~@{text "\<verbopen> \<dots> \<verbclose>"}
+  environments. In this way they are also checked by the compiler. Some \LaTeX-hack in 
+  the tutorial, however, ensures that the environment markers are not printed.
+
+  \item Line numbers can be printed using 
+  \isacommand{ML} \isa{\%linenos}~@{text "\<verbopen> \<dots> \<verbclose>"}
+  for ML-code or \isacommand{lemma} \isa{\%linenos} @{text "..."} for proofs. The
+  tag is \isa{\%linenosgray} when the numbered text should be gray. 
+
+  \end{itemize}
