+ *                      =======================
+ *
+ *      Atoms are names which are given representative pointer values
+ *      so that they can be stored more efficiently, and compaisons
+ *      for equality done more efficiently.
+ *
+ *      HTAtom_for(string) returns a representative value such that it
+ *      will always (within one run of the program) return the same
+ *      value for the same given string.
+ *
