;; Many of these functions may seem unnecessary especially when you consider
|

|
;; there implementations. In general I believe that Elisp suffers from a
|
||
|
;; library disorganization problem. Providing simple wrapper functions that
|
||
|
;; rename functions or reorder parameters is worth the effort in my opinion if
|
||
|
;; it improves discoverability (via intuition) and improve composability.
