Thanks!  It did work...

...however, this argument, and the fact you had to reset the
@exampleindent to a specific value (which may not be forward
compatible, if the default changes) after the example I wanted to
change indentation for, made me not use it at all.

The manual for @exampleindent seem incorrect, though, it states:

  The default value of INDENT is 5.

Texinfo.tex seem to contain:

\newskip\lispnarrowing \lispnarrowing=0.4in

Some experiment suggest it is about the same as a INDENT value of
3(em).

Still generate warnings, though.

Thanks.
