ZFILES contains 2 packages --
    (1) YFILES -- useful functions for accessing files.
    (2) YTOPCOM -- useful functions for compiling files. 
 
%%%%  YFILES -- BASIC FILE ACCESSING UTILITIES
File descriptor is a canonical FILE name, gets converted to file
string:

FILE or (FILE) -> "FILE.LSP"
(FILE.EXT)     -> "File.Ext"
(DIR FILE)     -> "<Dir>File.LSP"
(DIR FILE EXT) -> "<dir>File.Ext"
"xxx"          -> "xxx"

REFPRINT-FOR-GRAB-CTL( #X: any ):NIL                    EXPR

G:CREFON      Switched on by cross reference program CREF:FILE
G:JUST:FNS    Save only fn names in variable whose name is the first
              field of filename if T, O/W save all exprs in that variable
G:FILES       List of files read into LISP
G:SHOW:TRACE  Turns backtrace in ERRORSET on if T
G:SHOW:ERRORS Prints ERRORSET error messages if T


 
GRAB( <file description> )                  MACRO
    ===> (GRABBER NIL '<file-dscr>)
    Reads in entire file, whose system name is created using
    conventions described in FORM-FILE.  See ZMACROS.
 
GRABFNS( <ids> . <file description> )       MACRO
    ===> (GRABBER IDS <file-dscr>)
    Like GRAB, but only reads in specified ids.  See ZMACROS.
 
FORM-FILE( FILE:DSCR ): filename              EXPR
    ---------
    Takes a file dscr, possibly NIL, and returns a file name
    corresponding to that dscr and suitable as an argument to OPEN.
    F:OLD:FILE is set to this file name for future reference.
    Meanwhile, F:FILE:ID is set to a lisp identifier, and the file
    name is put on the OPEN:FILE:NAME property of that identifier.
    The identifier can be used to hold info about the file.
    E.g. its value may be a list of objects read from the file.

    NB:  FORM-FILE is at the lowest level of machine-independant code.
    MAKE-OPEN-FILE-NAME is a system dependant routine that creates
    file names specifically tailored to the version of SLISP in use.

 
GRABBER( SELECTION:id-list FILE:DSCR ):T            EXPR
    -------
    Opens the specified file, applies GRAB-EVAL-CTL to each
    expression on it, and then closes it.  Returns T.
    See GRAB-EVAL-CTL for important side effects.
 
GRAB-EVAL-CTL( #SELECTION EXPR#READ FILE#ID )       EXPR
    -------------
    Examines each expression read from file, and determines whether
    to EVAL that expression.  Also decides whether to append the
    expression, or an id taken from it, or nothing at all, to the
    value of the file id poined at by FILE#ID.
    The file id is stored for use as an argument to DUMP or COMPILE,
    for example.
    Note: G:JUSTFNS suppresses the storage of comments from the file.
          When reading LAP files, no list of fns is made.
 
DUMPER( FILE:DSCR : file-dscr ): NIL       EXPR
    ------
    Dumps file onto disk.  Filename as in GRABBER.
    Prettyprints the defined functions, set variables, and evaluated
    expressions which are members of the value of the variable filename.
    (For DEC versions:
     If IBASE neq 10, puts (SETQ IBASE current:base) at head of file.)
 
DUMPFNS-DE( FNS FILE:DSCR ): NIL            EXPR
    ----------
    Like DUMPER. Copies old file, putting new definitions for specified
    functions/variables.
    E.g.: (DUMPFNS-DE '(A B) '(FOO)) will first copy verbatim all the
    expressions on FOO.LSP which do not define A or B.
    Then the core definitions of A and B are dumped onto the file.
 
DUMP-REMAINING( SELECTION:list DUMPED:list )         EXPR
    --------------
    Taken out of DUMPFNS for ease of reading.
    Dumps those properties of items in selection which have not
    already been dumped.
 
FCOPY( IN:DSCR filename, OUT:DSCR filename ):boolean  EXPR
    -----
    Reformats file using the prettyprinter.  Useful for removing
    angle brackets or for tightening up function format.
    Returns T on normal exit, NIL if error reading file. 
 
FCOPY-SQ ( IN:DSCR filename, OUT:DSCR filename ):boolean  EXPR
    -----
    Reformats file using the compacting printer.  Letterizes
    and reports via '<big>' message long strings.
    Returns T on normal exit, NIL if error reading file. 
 
 YTOPCOM -- Compiler Control functions

(DF COMPILE-FILE (FILE:NAME)
(DF COMPILE-IN-CORE (FILE:NAME)


 
Commonly used globals.  Declared in this file so each individual
    file doesn't have to declare them.  
 "Other globals/fluids
 "This flag is checked by COMPILE-FILE.
 
PPLAP( MODE CODE )                          EXPR
    -----
   Prints the lap code in some appropriate format.
   Currently uses PRIN1SQ (PRIN1, Safe, use apostrophe to Quote
   non-numeric expressions).
 
COMPILE-FILE( FILE:DSCR )                   FEXPR
    ------------
    Reads the given file, and creates a corresponding LAP file.
    Each expression on the original file is mapped into an expression
    on the LAP file.
    Comments map into NIL.
    Function definitions map into the corresponding LAP code.
    These definitions are compiled, but NOT evaluated -- hence the
    functions will not be loaded into this core image by this routine.
    All other expressions are evaluated in an errorset then copied verbatim.
    EXCEPTION:  UNFLUID is evalutated, but converted into a comment
        when printed, to avoid confusing loader.

 
COMPILE-IN-CORE( FILE:DSCR ):NIL              FEXPR
    ---------------
   Compiles all EXPRS and FEXPRS on a file and loads compiled code into
   core.  Creates a file FILE:NAME.cpl which is a compilation log
   consisting of the names of functions compiled and the space used in
   their loading.
 
GCMSG( X:boolean ):any              EXPR
    -----
    Pre-defined in both SLISP and new IBM intpreter, so this cde shouln't
    do anything.  GCMSG turns the garbage collection msgs on or off.
