+;;;; These are extensions to Emacs Lisp that provide some form of
+;;;; Common Lisp compatibility, beyond what is already built-in
+;;;; in Emacs Lisp.
+;;;;
+;;;; When developing them, I had the code spread among several files.
+;;;; This file 'cl.el' is a concatenation of those original files,
+;;;; minus some declarations that became redundant.  The marks between
+;;;; the original files can be found easily, as they are lines that
+;;;; begin with four semicolons (as this does).  The names of the
+;;;; original parts follow the four semicolons in uppercase, those
+;;;; names are GLOBAL, SYMBOLS, LISTS, SEQUENCES, CONDITIONALS,
+;;;; ITERATIONS, MULTIPLE VALUES, ARITH, SETF and DEFSTRUCT.  If you
+;;;; add functions to this file, you might want to put them in a place
+;;;; that is compatible with the division above (or invent your own
+;;;; categories).
+;;;;
+;;;; To compile this file, make sure you load it first.  This is
+;;;; because many things are implemented as macros and now that all
+;;;; the files are concatenated together one cannot ensure that
+;;;; declaration always precedes use.
