,----[ (info "(elisp)Circular Objects") ]
| To represent shared or circular structures within a complex of Lisp
| objects, you can use the reader constructs `#N=' and `#N#'.
| 
|    Use `#N=' before an object to label it for later reference;
| subsequently, you can use `#N#' to refer the same object in another
| place.  Here, N is some integer.
