Value t means default display, nil means no display at all.  If the

its' type as parameters, in that order.  TYPE can have three different
values: `symbolic-name' (TAG is a string), `revision-number' (TAG is a
string) and `date' (TAG is a date as returned by `encode-time').  The
return value of the function or macro will be displayed as a string.

Here's an example that will display the formatted date for sticky
dates and the word \"Sticky\" for sticky tag names and revisions.

  (lambda (tag type)

Here's an example that will abbreviate to the first character only,
any text before the first occurence of `-' for sticky symbolic tags.
If the sticky tag is a revision number, the word \"Sticky\" is
displayed.  Date and time is displayed for sticky dates.

   (lambda (tag type)
