Hi Werner,

the <toc_hN> tags behave like <hN>, except that body text is not
surrounded by <hN> HTML tags in output file.

Example:
  #use wml::std::toc style=pre

  <h1>Chapter 1</h1>
  <h2>Section 1</h2>
  <h2>Section 2</h2>
  <toc_h1>Chapter 2</toc_h1>
  <h2>Section 1</h2>
  <h2>Section 2</h2>

Output:
  <H1><a name="ToC1">Chapter 1</a></H1>
  <H2><a name="ToC2">Section 1</a></H2>
  <H2><a name="ToC3">Section 2</a></H2>
  <a name="ToC4">Chapter 2</a>
  <H2><a name="ToC5">Section 1</a></H2>
  <H2><a name="ToC6">Section 2</a></H2>
  <pre>
  <a href="#ToC1"><strong>Chapter 1</strong></a>
      <a href="#ToC2"><strong>Section 1</strong></a>
      <a href="#ToC3"><strong>Section 2</strong></a>
  <a href="#ToC4"><strong>Chapter 2</strong></a>
      <a href="#ToC5"><strong>Section 1</strong></a>
      <a href="#ToC6"><strong>Section 2</strong></a>
  </pre>

With the ALT attribute, you may specify which entry will be inserted
into the ToC, for instance,
 
  <toc_h1 alt="List of Appendices"></toc_h1>
  <h2>Appendix A</h2>
  <h2>Appendix B</h2>
