For purposes of automatically checking the manual,
the GAP examples in one chapter (the text between \beginexample
and \endexample) should produce the same output, up to line breaks
and whitespace, whenever they are run in the same order
immediately after starting GAP
(this will ensure that the global random number generator is initialized
to the same values).
For more details,
see the last paragraph of Starting and Leaving GAP in the Tutorial.
To permit this automatic running,
examples that shall produce error messages should be put between
\begintt and \endtt
such that they will not be seen by this automatic test.
The automatic test also requires that examples are not indented
in the files;
in the printed manual,
the lines between \beginexample and \endexample
and the lines between \begintt and \endtt are automatically
indented.
