Re: Documentation strings and function.



Scott:
It would seem that "It is an error if more than one doc-string is present"
is inconsistent with the syntactic description of defun at the top of page 67.
I refer specifically to the {declaration | doc-string}* segment, which 
implies a free mix of any number of declarations and doc-strings. Rice's
example is legal, if one relies on the latter. It should be decided which
is correct, and the appropriate repair made to the book.
