Arguments: name &key inverse in-files in-functions
This is the top-level command equivalent of who-references.
When the value of the inverse argument is nil (the default), this
command prints information in the database about those functions which reference the
global variable identified by name. When the value of the inverse
argument is true, this command prints information on the global variables referenced by
the function identified by name.
When inverse is nil, name can be any lisp object but
only global variables make sense as the value (no cross reference information is gathered
for other types of Lisp objects). When inverse is true, name must be a
function name (either a symbol or a list of the type described in the discussion of
function specs in implementation.htm).
The in-functions and in-files keyword arguments can be used to
restrict the search to particular functions (for in-functions) or functions
defined in particular files (for in-files). The default value for each argument
is nil, which calls for an unrestricted search. When inverse is nil
(so a list of functions is printed by this function) a true value for in-functions
or in-files should be a list of function names or file names (respectively) and
the information printed will be the intersection of the functions found in the database
and the functions in the list or defined in files in the list (respectively). Note that
source file information must have been recorded for the files in the in-files
list. When inverse is true (so this functions is printing the list of global
variables referenced by the function identified by name), the list that is the
value of in-functions should be a list of global variables and only those found
in the database and in the list will be printed.
