RLISP88 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ switch

Rlisp '88 is a superset of the Rlisp that has been traditionally used for the support of REDUCE. It is fully documented in the book Marti, J.B., ``RLISP '88: An Evolutionary Approach to Program Design and Reuse'', World Scientific, Singapore (1993). It supports different looping constructs from the traditional Rlisp, and treats ``-'' as a letter unless separated by spaces. Turning on the switch rlisp88 converts to Rlisp '88 parsing conventions in symbolic mode, and enables the use of Rlisp '88 extensions. Turning off the switch reverts to the traditional Rlisp and the previous mode ( ( symbolic or algebraic) in force before rlisp88 was turned on.
