+    lsp(1) is a terminal pager with a focus on manual pages.
+
+    It offers some assistance in handling manual pages:
+
+    * Navigation to other referenced manual pages.
+    * Opening of any manual page by name.
+    * Maintainance of several open manual pages in a session.
+    * Experimental TOC mode that is helpful to show only sections and
+      subsections of manual pages.
+    * Creating a pseudo-file with the output of apropos.
+      This could be useful especially for novice users: this can be
+      used to search or read through all manual pages' short descriptions
+      and immediately open interesting ones.
