+The documentation for a function is usually stored in the function
+definition itself (@pxref{Lambda Expressions}). The function
+@code{documentation} knows how to extract it. You can also put
+function documentation in the @code{function-documentation} property
+of the function name. That is useful with definitions such as
+keyboard macros that can't hold a documentation string.
