3.6.4 Other kinds of entries

If Category is something other than “Syntax” and “Procedure”, then the entry describes a non–procedural value, and the category describes the type of that value. The header line:

Condition Type: &who

indicates that &who is a condition type. The header line:

Auxiliary Syntax: unquote

indicates that unquote is a syntax binding that may occur only as part of specific surrounding expressions. Any use as an independent syntactic construct or identifier is a syntax violation. As with “Syntax” entries, some “Auxiliary Syntax” entries carry a suffix (expand), specifying that the syntactic keyword of the construct is exported with level 1.
