Re: Interactive specs of C functions.

    Kim F. Storm proposed good-looking solutions, but they were discarded
    because the specs were specified in another file, or something like
    that.  It wasn't clear if it really was a bad idea (in fact, I liked
    it=A0;-)) but AFAICS, the problem is still there.

An idea that occurs to me: if the interactive string of a subr starts
with `(', read it to get a sexp and then eval that sexp.

This way, we could write the expression in the C function definition.
It may require some inconvenient quoting, but it's still better
than having the sexp in another file.
