Norvig, p. 891 says some tools can extract file headers from lisp code
headers to show module/project layout.  I'm sure this could be done
with elisp, but before I dig into it, I thought I'd ask if anyone knew
of an existing tool that does this.

See: http://www.informatimago.com/develop/lisp/index.html

See GENERATE-SUMMARY in: http://darcs.informatimago.com/local/darcs/public/lisp/common-lisp/make-depends.lisp


There are a ton of such tools, like Albert or cldoc to cite only two.
