Thanks again, this is really convenient.
Actually a large piece of my time was spent on reading HOL's
relationScript.sml and other scripts that I needed, I try to find useful
theorems by their name (otherwise I couldn't know RTC_CASES*, RTC_INDUCT,
RTC_SINGLE, etc.), but maybe the scripts are too long, I don't know how to
I missed RTC_INDUCT_RIGHT1, etc.)
I hope one day I could learn to use the Holyhammer ...

Chun
