+@subsection ARM9 specific commands
+@cindex ARM9
-Many ARM9-family CPUs are built around ARM9TDMI integer cores,
-or processors resembling ARM9TDMI, and can use these commands.
+ARM9-family cores are built around ARM9TDMI or ARM9E (including ARM9EJS)
+integer processors.
Such cores include the ARM920T, ARM926EJ-S, and ARM966.
+For historical reasons, one command shared by these cores starts
+with the @command{arm9tdmi} prefix.
+This is true even for ARM9E based processors, which implement the
+ARMv5TE architecture instead of ARMv4T.

@c 9-june-2009: tried this on arm920t, it didn't work.
@c no-params always lists nothing caught, and that's how it acts.
