A.15.  )lisp
==============================================================================
 
User Level Required:  development
 
Command Syntax: 
 
  -  )lisp [lispExpression]
 
Command Description: 
 
This command is used by OpenAxiom system developers to have single expressions
evaluated by the Lisp system on which OpenAxiom is built. The lispExpression is
read by the Lisp reader and evaluated. If this expression is not complete
(unbalanced parentheses, say), the reader will wait until a complete
expression is entered.
 
Since this command is only useful for evaluating single expressions, the )fin
command may be used to drop out of OpenAxiom into Lisp.  These two
commands are deprecated.
