• File psl-1983/doc/common-lisp-functions.txt — part of check-in [eb17ceb7f6] at 2020-04-21 19:40:01 on branch master — Add Reduce 3.0 to the historical section of the archive, and some more
  files relating to version sof PSL from the early 1980s. Thanks are due to
  Paul McJones and Nelson Beebe for these, as well as to all the original
  authors.

Description of columns:
	E - Existing PSL function
		* means the function needs no change, X means it requires
		an extension
	C - Name conflicts with existing PSL function
	O - Uses &optional and/or &rest arguments
	N - Same as a PSL function with this name
	S - Simple to implement
		* means it should be easy to implement (given
		optional arguments and the feature mentioned in column F),
		U means it's in the USEFUL package,
		C means it's in the COMMON package, though perhaps as a macro
		when it should be a function
	D - Difficult to implement
		A hard feature or large effort is required to add it, such
		as multiple values
	F - Feature needed
		A feature which does not currently exist in PSL is needed

Comments appear on the line FOLLOWING the function name.
