<groupcomp>
The <groupcomp> element is part of the subset of elements that
define syntax diagrams in DITA. A group is a logical set of pieces of syntax that
go together. The
group composite means that the items that make up the syntax diagram will be formatted
close
together rather than being separated by a horizontal or vertical line, which is the
usual formatting
method. This element
is part of the DITA programming domain, a special set of DITA elements
designed to document programming tasks, concepts, and reference information.
