vertical distance between two successive images

[Werner LEMBERG]

Is there a possibility to influence the vertical distance between
adjacent images in the PDF output?

Given something like the following

```
foo

@image{foo}
@image{bar}

bar
```

I would like to set the vertical distance between 'foo' and 'bar' to a
much smaller value.

BTW, a work-around is

```
foo

@table @asis
@item @image{foo}
@itemx @image{bar}
@end table

bar

```

to make the distance between images almost zero.  However, this
isn't flexible either (and the pre-table and post-table vertical space
differs, too, in comparison to the other solution).

In general, I would like to have a new global command for that,
similar to `@exampleindent`.  Some tabular material – but not all – in
LilyPond's PDF documentation would look much better if there were a
'compressed' mode that could be controlled with such a command.

Please feel free to ignore my suggestion for a new command.  I would
be fully happy to get some recommended TeX code instead that I could
wrap into a macro.

\input texinfo.tex

Using a @code{@@table} environment:

@table @asis
@item @image{image, 5cm}
@itemx @image{image, 5cm}
@end table

Using @code{@@image} directly.

@image{image, 5cm}
@image{image, 5cm}

The end.
