+Defines @code{\@var{cmd}} to refer to a new bin for storing boxes.  Such
+a box is for holding typeset material, to use multiple times
+(@pxref{Boxes}) or to measure or manipulate.  The name @code{\@var{cmd}}
+is a command name so it must start with a backslash (@samp{\}), and must
+not be already defined.
+
+The allocation of a box is global.  This command is fragile
+(@pxref{\protect}).
