\description{
-The function usually takes several expressions, each assigning a compound
-name to a list, specifying the kinetic model type and reaction or transfer
-to other observed compartments. Instead of specifying several expressions, a
-list of lists can be given in the speclist argument.
+This function is usually called using a call to \code{\link[=mkinsub]{mkinsub()}} for each observed
+variable, specifying the corresponding submodel as well as outgoing pathways
+(see examples).
}
\details{
For the definition of model types and their parameters, the equations given
in the FOCUS and NAFTA guidance documents are used.
+
+For kinetic models with more than one observed variable, a symbolic solution
+of the system of differential equations is included in the resulting
+mkinmod object in some cases, speeding up the solution.
+
+If a C compiler is found by \code{\link[pkgbuild:has_compiler]{pkgbuild::has_compiler()}} and there
+is more than one observed variable in the specification, C code is generated
+for evaluating the differential equations, compiled using
+\code{\link[inline:cfunction]{inline::cfunction()}} and added to the resulting mkinmod object.
