1 Introduction

Manifest is a system for semi-automatically documenting Common Lisp
packages. (A manifest tells you what's in a package. Also this system
makes manifest a bunch of information that is actually present in a
Lisp system.) The basic premise is that every exported symbol in a
package should be documented.

To check it out, after loading the system, evaluate (start) and point
your browser at the URL it returns.

The main system appears first, followed by any subsystem dependency.
