Abstract
In this chapter we leave behind the “operating system” of the lisp machine and return to aspects of the lisp language itself. In particular, we’ll look at the various constructs for determining the flow of control. The notes are a little sketchier than usual, because this material is covered reasonably well in Part V of volume 2 of the Symbolics documentation.
