32. Feature functions
This chapter contains a list of a basic feature functions available for stream items in utterances. See section 14.6
Features. These are the basic features, which can be combined with relative features (such as n. for next, and
relations to follow links). Some of these features are implemented as short C++ functions (e.g. asyl_in) while
others are simple features on an item (e.g. pos). Note that functional feature take precidence over simple features, so
accessing and feature called "X" will always use the function called "X" even if a the simple feature call "X" exists
on the item.
Unlike previous versions there are no features that are builtin on all items except addr (reintroduced in 1.3.1) which
returns a unique string for that item (its the hex address on teh item within the machine). Features may be defined
through Scheme too, these all have the prefix lisp_.
The feature functions are listed in the form Relation.name where Relation is the name of the stream that the function
is appropriate to and name is its name. Note that you will not require the Relation part of the name if the stream item
you are applying the function to is of that type.
