/*
    LIB

    These are the functions that are loaded into lispinc on startup.
    Many Lisp implementations include functions like cons, car, and
    cdr as primitives. An alternative approach is to define those
    functions in terms of lambda abstraction. While these lambda
    definitions tend to be opaque, this approach has has the
    advantages that 1) it's more theoretically elegant to avoid
    unneeded primitives and 2) it saves the trouble of having to deal
    primitive C functions any more than is necessary.

    read.c loops over the length of the library to load library
    functions, then switches to reading user input. Unfortunately,
    there is no way to check the length of the library array (or is
    there???), so the length of the library must be updated by hand.
    To make this easier, counters are included for sections of the
    library. These counters are all added together to get the length
    of the library.

    Remember: these counters must be updated manually!

    #defines are used instead of constants because apparently nothing
    can be initialized with anything except string literals and
    numbers.
