* lib3.tex (module string): added rindex().
* lib1.tex (section{Built-in Functions}): added bagof(), lambda(), map() and reduce(). Repharased apply(). Removed or rephrased references to exec() (now the exec stmt). * lib4.tex: posix.exec --> posix.execv * ref4.tex, ref8.tex, tut.tex: builtin --> __builtin__ * lib3.tex (module string): added atof() and atol(), and ato[fl]_error.
