+The
+.B \-a
+option causes
+.I lxref
+to put limited cross reference information in the sources named.
+.I lxref
+will scan the source and when it comes across a definition of a function
+(that is a line beginning with
+.I "`(def'"
+it will preceed that line with a list of the functions which call this
+function, written as a comment preceeded by
+.I "`;.. '".
+All existing lines beginning with
+.I "`;.. '"
+will be removed from the file.
+If the source file contains a line beginning
+.I "`;.-'"
+then this will disable this annotation process from this point on until a
+.I "`;.+'"
+is seen (however, lines beginning with
+.I "`;.. '"
+will continue to be deleted).
+After the annoation is done, the original file
+.I "`foo.l'"
+is renamed to
+.I `#.foo.l'"
+and the new file with annotation is named
+.I "`foo.l'"
