+The

+.I struct ares_txt_ext
+is 1 if this structure is a start of a TXT record, and 0 if the structure is a
+continuation of a previous record. The linked list of the

+.I record_start
+equal to 0 between them.
+.PP
+These sequences of
+.I struct ares_txt_ext
+(starting from the item with
+.I record_start
+equal to 1, and ending right before the record start item) may be treated as
+either components of a single TXT record or as a multi-parted TXT record,
