Okay, I've tried to put that in texinfo, and got stuck. My plain text included this:

	 The current list of features is:

                - 'frozen-varobjs' -- indicates presence of -var-set-frozen command,
                as well as possible presense of the 'frozen' field in the output of
                -varobj-create.

How do I express this in texinfo?

Thanks,
Volodya
