I apologize for not entirely following the patch submission process. I'm not sure I understand it fully yet.
The manual does not provide an example showing a locally scoped function. Though the behavior can potentially be inferred from the documentation of functions, an example showing the relationship between =let= and =funcall= might be of practical help for someone who has not made a deep dive into the manual.
I have appended the following to the documentation for ="" in the attached file:
Functions defined within a @code{let} must be invoked using a call to @code{funcall}.
@example
(defun foo (x)
(let ((bar (lambda (y) (+ x y))))
(funcall bar 3)))
(foo 4)
address@hidden 7
@end example
The standard internet search engines do not provide a well articulated example at this time. Because locally scoped functions are a common idiom in the Lisp family of languages, it seems likely that an example will be helpful to programmers with experience in other Lisps. =let= seems like the best place to put an example in the documentation.
Anyway, thanks for all you have done. If you have any questions or there is anything I can do to help improve the documentation please let me know.
