+manicheck() checks if all the files within a C<MANIFEST> in the current
+directory really do exist. If C<MANIFEST> and the tree below the current
+directory are in sync it exits silently, returning an empty list. Otherwise
+it returns a list of files which are listed in the C<MANIFEST> but missing
+from the directory, and by default also outputs these names to STDERR.
filecheck() finds files below the current directory that are not
mentioned in the C<MANIFEST> file. An optional file C<MANIFEST.SKIP>
will be consulted. Any file matching a regular expression in such a
-file will not be reported as missing in the C<MANIFEST> file.
+file will not be reported as missing in the C<MANIFEST> file. The list of
+any extraneous files found is returned, and by default also reported to

+fullcheck() does both a manicheck() and a filecheck(), returning references
+to two arrays, the first for files manicheck() found to be missing, the

skipcheck() lists all the files that are skipped due to your
C<MANIFEST.SKIP> file.
