I have some LISP I'm converting from AKCL to CLISP, but I can't figure
out this one statement...

CLISP doesn't like it, and I haven't been able to find any documentation
on it...

Here's an example of the statement:


(defentry fork () (int fork))

I haven't been able to find defentry anywhere, so I thought it was a 
defined type, but then I couldn't find a defination for it in the source
code I was given.

Any help with this will be appreciated.

defentry is part of akcl's foreign function interface -- it's
documented in the kcl report (part of the distribution files).
As far as I can tell, there's no simple way to do this in
clisp -- check out the clisp (source) file foreign.txt.
