    Read an entry for this sequence, but keep it separate from the others.  See
    <XREF LINKEND="CONCEPTS-ENTRY"> to see what we mean when we say "entry".  The
    new entry will be marked as active (see <XREF LINKEND="CONCEPTS-ACTIVEENTRY">)
    and will be the new default entry (see <XREF
    LINKEND="CONCEPTS-DEFAULTENTRY">).
