@code{(require 'vet)}

@defun vet-slib file1 @dots{}

Using the procedures in the @code{top-refs} and @code{manifest}
modules, @code{vet-slib} analyzes each SLIB module and @var{file1}, @dots{}, reporting
about any procedure or macro defined whether it is:

@table @asis

@item orphaned
defined, not called, not exported;
@item missing
called, not defined, and not exported by its @code{require}d modules;
@item undocumented-export
Exported by module, but no index entry in @file{slib.info};

@end table

And for the library as a whole:

@table @asis

@item documented-unexport
Index entry in @file{slib.info}, but no module exports it.

@end table

This straightforward analysis caught three full days worth of
never-executed branches, transitive require assumptions, spelling
errors, undocumented procedures, missing procedures, and cyclic
dependencies in SLIB.

The optional arguments @var{file1}, @dots{} provide a simple way to vet
prospective SLIB modules.
