ld suppresses details when printing
Major Section: MISCELLANEOUS
Ld-evisc-tuple is an ld special (see ld). The accessor is
(ld-evisc-tuple state) and an updater is
(set-ld-evisc-tuple val state), although the use of set-evisc-tuple
is preferred for updating. Ld-evisc-tuple must be either nil, which
is its initial value, or a legal evisc-tuple: see set-evisc-tuple.
The general-purpose ACL2 read-eval-print loop, ld, reads forms from
standard-oi, evaluates them and prints the result to standard-co.
However, there are various flags that control ld's behavior and
ld-evisc-tuple is one of them. Ld may print the forms it is
evaluating and/or the results of evaluation. Depending on the value of
ld-evisc-tuple ld may ``eviscerate'' objects before printing them.
See set-evisc-tuple for a discussion of evisceration and of how other
evisc-tuples affect the printing of error messages and warnings, as well as
other output not from ld.
