-  After the call to the @code{DEFUN} macro, you must write the argument
-name list that every C function must have, followed by ordinary C
-declarations for the arguments.  For a function with a fixed maximum
-number of arguments, declare a C argument for each Lisp argument, and
-give them all type @code{Lisp_Object}.  When a Lisp function has no
-upper limit on the number of arguments, its implementation in C actually
-receives exactly two arguments: the first is the number of Lisp
-arguments, and the second is the address of a block containing their
-values.  They have types @code{int} and @w{@code{Lisp_Object *}}.
