As concerns the hash mark, I have never taken the time to figure out what it does. Hash marks often indicate that the "printed representation" is not what the computer sees, like #<buffer objects.texi> But hash marks are used in other circumstances, too. The second character determines which. #' is a short-hand for using `function' which is like `quote', but is preferred for objects which are functions. It causes the byte compiler to compile them. -- Robert J.
