Using mkobj()

  The user call to mkobj() has the form:

 
mkobj ('name:id or :id-list, 'indextype:int-list,{'symmetries:list-list}, 
{'implicit:bool}, {'itype:id}):iobj;
The first two arguments are required, the others are optional. If any intervening argument is undesired, use the value   '(). Because some of these parameters are lists the input line must be parsed in symbolic mode. The usual way to ensure this is to apply a quote-mark to the object name. This will be made clearer in the examples below. mkobj() prints the indexed object with an attached alphabetic index (i.e. a, b, c, ...) to show the index-structure of the object created. Each of the arguments to mkobj() is described below.
