+# This script is invoked when installing manual entries. It generates
+# additional links to manual entries, corresponding to the procedure
+# and command names described by the manual entry. For example, the
+# Tcl manual entry Hash.3 describes procedures Tcl_InitHashTable,
+# Tcl_CreateHashEntry, and many more. This script will make hard
+# links so that Tcl_InitHashTable.3, Tcl_CreateHashEntry.3, and so
+# on all refer to Hash.3 in the installed directory.
+#
+# Because of the length of command and procedure names, this mechanism
+# only works on machines that support file names longer than 14 characters.
+# This script checks to see if long file names are supported, and it
+# doesn't make any links if they are not.
+#
+# The script takes one argument, which is the name of the directory
+# where the manual entries have been installed.
