%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%%% MAN -- an online PSL reference manual facility.
%%%        Principal features are easy access to the index and
%%%        a command to jump directly from a line in the index
%%%        to the place in the manual referred to.
%%% 
%%% Author: Cris Perdue
%%% Date: 12/1/82
%%%
%%% This package is still under development.
%%% An index browsing mode is contemplated, also use of a specialized
%%% representation of the reference manual.
%%% A concept index browser and a table of contents browser
%%% are contemplated as extensions.

%%% Defines 2 new nondestructive commands for text mode,
%%% which seems to make them apply in LISP mode as well.
%%% One is M-!, which takes you to information about the
%%% subject of interest in the chapter and page referred to
%%% by the next index reference.
%%% The other is C-X I, which does a "Find File" on the file
%%% containing the function index to the PSL manual.
