-No installation is necessary if you just want to run the version of
-WoMan distributed with GNU Emacs 21 or later, although some additional
-setup may still be desirable.
-
-If you are installing @file{woman.el}, either to update the version
-distributed with GNU Emacs or because WoMan was not distributed with
-your version of Emacs, then you need to put the file in a directory in
-your Emacs load path and byte compile it.  A good directory to use is
-the @file{site-lisp} directory in your Emacs file tree, e.g.@:
-@file{/usr/local/share/emacs/@var{version}/site-lisp/} (where
-@var{version} is your Emacs version), provided you have write access to
-it.  If you use a directory that is not included by default in your
-Emacs load path then you need to add something like this to your
-@file{.emacs} initialization file:
-
-@lisp
-(add-to-list 'load-path "my-lisp")
-@end lisp

-@noindent
-where @file{my-lisp} is the pathname of the directory.  @xref{Init File, ,
-The Init File ~/.emacs, emacs, The Emacs Editor}, for further details on
-customizing Emacs in general.
-
-You can byte-compile the file by using the Emacs command
-@code{byte-compile-file} or by opening the directory containing the
-file, putting point on it and pressing the key @kbd{B}.  (In fact, if
-the file is compiled then it is only the compiled file that needs to be
-in the Emacs load path, but leaving the source file there will do no
-harm.)

-may be necessary (or at least convenient) to make WoMan autoload (if you

-by the @code{woman} interface.  You may also find it convenient to make
