  <!--
  ;;; Local Variables:                              ***
  ;;; sgml-parent-document: ("learning.sgm" "book") ***
  ;;; sgml-indent-data: t                           ***
  ;;; sgml-validate-command: "make valid"           ***
  ;;; End:                                          ***
  -->

The prefix and suffix (;;; and ***) aren't necessary, though I like
them; Emacs will assume that whatever comes before and after "Local
Variables:" comes before and after every line.

The parameter to sgml-parent-document is a list; the first string in
the list is the filename of the parent, and the second is the GI
(element type) of the top-level element.  Do C-h v sgml-parent RET for
more information.
