.SS* List Sorting
+
+Note: these functions operate on lists. The principal sorting function
+in \*(TL is
+.codn sort ,
+described under Sequence Manipulation.
+
+The
+.code merge
+function described here provides access to an elementary step
+of the algorithm used internally by
+.code sort
+when operating on lists.
+
+The
+.code multi-sort
+operation sorts multiple lists in parallel. It is implemented using
+.codn sort .
