Re: Non-documented macros



The system only knows that PACKAGE-DECLARE is a macro, but not from which file
it comes.  I am guessing, but I think this is caused by its being a MACRO, rather
than defined using DEFMACRO.  (I found this out by searching through directories
untill I found it in a file.)  I don't know whether many more system functions are
orphans in this way, but it certainly is annoying when one tries to find out what
the options for some function really are, and then can't find the function text.
If this is an isolated case, perhaps it can be fixed, but if there are lots of
things like this (at least for complex functions like the above), learning how
to use everything becomes much harder.
