-Elib, the GNU Emacs Lisp Library, is a collection of useful routines
-for Emacs lisp programs which don't have to be reinvented each time
-a new program is written.
+Epydoc is a tool for generating API documentation for Python modules, based on
+their docstrings. For an example of epydoc's output, see the API documentation
+for epydoc itself. A lightweight markup language called epytext can be used to
+format docstrings, and to add information about specific fields, such as
+parameters and instance variables. Epydoc also understands docstrings written in
+ReStructuredText, Javadoc and plaintext.
-Elib provides features of:
- - container data structures (queues, stacks, AVL trees, etc)
- - string handling functions missing in standard Emacs
- - minibuffer handling functions missing in standard Emacs
- - routines for handling lists of so-called cookies in a buffer.
