FROBS: Object-oriented frame language for Common Lisp

areas/kr/systems/frames/frobs/
FROBS is a merger between frames and objects. It is implemented in Common Lisp and provides an object-oriented language as well as frame type operations and a forward chaining rule system. The rule system translates rule definitions into functions which can then be compiled by the native Common Lisp compiler. The frobs-doc.l file is something that someone else did to add documentation strings to FROBS. It is not something that we load automatically, so is separate. Having it be a separate file is fine. It is not a document describing FROBS or FROLIC, which are in the tar files as frobs.ps and prolog.ps.
