+AUTOMATICALLY LOADING FUNCTIONS ~
 							*autoload-functions*
 When using many or large functions, it's possible to automatically define them
-only when they are used.  Use the FuncUndefined autocommand event with a
-pattern that matches the function(s) to be defined.  Example: >
+only when they are used.  There are two methods: with an autocommand and with
+the "autoload" directory in 'runtimepath'.
+
+
+Using an autocommand ~
+
+The autocommand is useful if you have a plugin that is a long Vim script file.
+You can define the autocommand and quickly quit the script with |:finish|.
+That makes Vim startup faster.  The autocommand should then load the same file
+again, setting a variable to skip the |:finish| command.
+
+Use the FuncUndefined autocommand event with a pattern that matches the
+function(s) to be defined.  Example: >
 
 	:au FuncUndefined BufNet* source ~/vim/bufnetfuncs.vim
 
 The file "~/vim/bufnetfuncs.vim" should then define functions that start with
 "BufNet".  Also see |FuncUndefined|.
 
+
+Using an autoload script ~
+
+Using a script in the "autoload" directory is simpler, but requires using
+exactly the right file name.  A function that can be autoloaded has a name
+like this: >
+
+	:call filename:funcname()
+
+When such a function is called, and it is not defined yet, Vim will search the
+"autoload" directories in 'runtimepath' for a script file called
+"filename.vim".  For example "~/.vim/autoload/filename.vim".  That file should
+then define the function like this: >
+
+	function filename:funcname()
+	   echo "Done!"
+	endfunction
+
+The file name and the name used before the colon in the function must match
+exactly, and the defined function must have the name exactly as it will be
+called.
+
+It is possible to use subdirectories.  Every colon in the function name works
+like a path separator.  Thus when calling a function: >
+
+	:call foo:bar:func()
+
+Vim will look for the file "autoload/foo/bar.vim" in 'runtimepath'.
+
+The name before the first colon must be at least two characters long,
+otherwise it looks like a scope, such as "s:".
+
+Note that the script will be sourced again and again if a function is called
+that looks like it is defined in the autoload script but it isn't.
