Description
A systemitem identifies any system-related item
or term. The class attribute
defines a number of common system-related terms.
Many inline elements in DocBook are, in fact, system related. Some
of the objects identified by the class attribute on
systemitem may eventually migrate out to become
separate inline elements, and some inline elements may migrate into
systemitem.
