Subject: Fast retrieval of NAMES of definitions and theorems?
Date: Sun, 22 Nov 92 01:28:00 PST
From: chou@edu.ucla.cs

Is there any way of retrieving the names of definitions and theorems
of an ancestor theory without retrieving at the same time the
corresponding thm's?  The only way of retrieving names that I know 
of is to use the ML functions `definitions` amd `theorems`, which
get not only the names but also the thm's and are terribly slow
when the thm's contain large terms.
