 This is if a `.elc' file exists but is older than the `.el' file.
+Files in subdirectories of DIRECTORY are processed also.
 
 If the `.elc' file does not exist, normally the `.el' file is *not* compiled.
 But a prefix argument (optional second arg) means ask user,
 for each such `.el' file, whether to compile it.  Prefix argument 0 means
-don't ask and compile the file anyway."
