This is the -!-contents of foo.
Here is a description of an imaginary function `foo':
- - Function: foo INTEGER1 &optional INTEGER2 &rest INTEGERS
+ - Function: foo integer1 &optional integer2 &rest integers
The function `foo' subtracts INTEGER1 from INTEGER2, then adds all
the rest of the arguments to the result. If INTEGER2 is not
supplied, then the number 19 is used by default.
When you evaluate an expression interactively, the Lisp interpreter
first reads the textual representation of it, producing a Lisp object,
