6 The DSPEC Package

This chapter describes symbols available in the DSPEC package.

Definition specs, or dspecs, are a systematic way of naming definitions. They are intended to cover all kinds of definitions. One important use is keeping track of the locations of definitions. Simple examples of dspecs are:

car
(setf car)
(defclass standard-object).
