Pfft.  Reading a manual?  Really?  I directly went to the 'Texinfo
mode' node in the appendix :-)

No – as expected:  For macros without arguments you get

```
[Error: No content found]
```

and for a macro with arguments like

```
@macro foo {bar, baz}
  ...
@end macro
```

you get

```
[bar, baz]
```

BTW, there is also a bug in the argument parser: In Texinfo mode,
arguments *must* be on the same (logical) line as `@macro`, contrary
to TeX's or LaTeX's macro definition.  However, a macro like

```
@macro logoLegalMacOSX
La @qq{imatge de la X} no és una marca registrada.
@end macro
```

gets shown as

```
[imatge de la X]
```

if I have

```
  '((1  ("macro"))
```

as the setting in `Texinfo-fold-env-spec-list`, which is wrong.
Assuming that this `1` is correct (which is not) it should show `[]`
instead, i.e., no arguments.
