+\description{
+ \pkg{ape} provides functions for reading and manipulating phylogenetic
+ trees and DNA sequences, computing DNA distances, estimating trees
+ with distance-based methods, and a range of methods for comparative
+ analyses and analysis of diversification. Functionalities are also
+ provided for programming new phylogenetic methods.
+
+ The complete list of functions can be displayed with
+ \code{library(help = "splines")}.
