	in your diagrams that are not part of any "entry" of the matrix
	created by <code>&amp;</code> and <code> \\</code>.  This is done with the
	<em>excursion</em> command
<P><CENTER><TABLE BORDER=BASIC CELLPADDING=3 COLS=1><TR><TD> <code>\save</code>&nbsp;<I>t</I>&nbsp;<code>\restore</code>
</TABLE></CENTER><P>

	where <I>t</I> should be a target in one of the formats described in
	sections&nbsp;<A HREF="node16.html#arrowstargets">2.5</A>-<A HREF="node17.html#arrowschanging">2.6</A>.	 <I>t</I> can do
	any kind of typesetting desired, for example,
<BLOCKQUOTE><PRE>\xymatrix{
 A \ar@{-}[dr]
 &amp;{}\save[]+&lt;3cm,0cm&gt;*\txt&lt;8pc&gt;{%
     This is a very big commentary
     but it does not otherwise affect
     the diagram.}
     \ar[l] \ar[d] \restore \\
 &amp; B \ar@{-}[r] &amp; C \ar@{-}[r] &amp; D
}</PRE></BLOCKQUOTE>

	It illustrates how a "down" arrow does not necessarily have to point
	particularly straight down - in this case because it is based in the
	displaced pseudo entry.
