(!= x1 x2 ... xn) -> True if any arguments are not equal
(* x1 x2 ... xn) -> z
(+ x1 [x2 ... xn]) -> sum (int32 or real)
(- x1 x2 ... xn) -> z
(- x) -> -x
(/ x y) -> x / y (real)
(< [x1 x2 ... xn]) -> True if x1 < x2 < ... < xn
(<= [x1 x2 ... xn]) -> True if x1 <= x2 <= ... <= xn
(= [x1 x2 ... xn]) -> True if all arguments are equal
(> [x1 x2 ... xn]) -> True if x1 > x2 > ... > xn
(>= [x1 x2 ... xn]) -> True if x1 >= x2 >= ... >= xn
(@ list index) -> item index from list (0-based)
(@ struct key) -> value corresponding to key from struct
(abs x) -> absolute value (int32 or real)
(acos x ['degrees]) -> inverse cosine (real)
(add x1 [x2 ... xn]) -> sum (after converting arguments to int32)
(and [exp1 exp2 ... expn]) -> True/Nil

Returns Nil if any argument is Nil, otherwise returns last argument
(append [list1 list2 ...]) -> concatenated list
(apply function [arg1 arg2 ... argn] argList) -> Result of function with arguments arg1... followed by contents of argList
(armGetRepairCost type) -> Cost to repair 1 hit point
(armGetRepairTech type) -> Tech level required to repair
(asin x ['degrees]) -> inverse sine (real)
(atan y [x] ['degrees]) -> inverse tangent (real)
(atmAddEntry ...)
(atmAtomTable ...)
(atmDeleteEntry ...)
(atmList ...)
(atmLookup ...)
(block [localsList exp1 exp2 ... expn]) -> value of expn

Evaluates a series of expressions and returns the value of the last one.
LocalsList is a list of local variables and/or lists consisting of a local variable and the initial value to assign it.If an expression evaluates to an error, returns that error and doesn't evaluate the rest.
(cat [string1 string2 ... stringn]) -> concatenated string
(ceil x) -> x rounded up, i.e. towards positive infinity (real)
(cnvDrawImage x y imageDesc [screen] [ID]) -> True/Nil
(cnvDrawLine xFrom yFrom xTo yTo width color [screen] [ID]) -> True/Nil
(cnvDrawRect x y width height color [screen] [ID]) -> True/Nil

font:

'Small
'Medium
'MediumBold
'MediumHeavyBold
'Large
'LargeBold
'Header
'HeaderBold
'SubTitle
'SubTitleBold
'SubTitleHeavyBold
'Title

alignment:

'left
'center
'right
(convertTo dataType value) -> result

dataType: 'error|'int32|'list|'nil|'real|'string|'true
(cos x ['degrees]) -> cosine (real)
(count list|string|struct) -> number of items or characters
(dbgGet property) -> value

property:

'debugMode
'showBounds
'showLineOfFire
'showNavPaths

(dbgIsActive) -> True if in debug mode, else Nil
(dbgLog [string]*) -> True if in debug mode, else Nil
(dbgOutput [string]*) -> True if in debug mode, else Nil
(dbgSet property value) -> True/Nil

property:

'showBounds True/Nil
'showLineOfFire True/Nil
'showNavPaths True/Nil

(divide x y) -> x / y after converting arguments to int32, rounded toward 0
(double x) -> x as a double
(ecoExchange amount fromCurrency toCurrency) -> amount
(enum list itemVar exp) -> value

Iterate itemVar over list evaluating exp. Returns the last value of exp.
(enumwhile list condition itemVar exp) -> value

Iterate itemVar over list evaluating exp while condition is True. Returns the last value of exp.
(eq [x1 x2 ... xn]) -> True if all arguments are equal
(errblock localsList [exp1 exp2 ... expn] expErr) -> value of expn or expErr if error occurs

Like block, except it evaluates and returns the last expression only if one of the other expressions evaluates to an error.
LocalsList must contain at least one variable. If the first variable is not assigned within localsList, it will be set
to the error while evaluating expErr.
(error msg) -> error
(eval exp) -> result

Evaluates the expression. If it's a string, result is the value of the corresponding symbol.
If it's a quoted expression, the expression is evaluated.
If it's a list, each item is evaluated, then it's evaluated as a function call.
(exp x) -> e^x (real)
(filter list var boolean-exp) -> filtered list

Iterates var over list, evaluating boolean-exp. Returns a list containing the items for which boolean-exp is non-Nil.
(find string target) -> position of target in string (0-based)
(find source-list target ['ascending|'descending] [keyIndex]) -> position of target in source-list (0-based)

The 'ascending or 'descending argument makes the function more efficient if the list is long and sorted in the specified direction.
Specifying an integer keyIndex causes it to compare that item of each list within source-list with the target instead.

(floor x) -> x rounded down, i.e. towards negative infinity (real)
