+Syntax:
+
+  (uniq <sequence>)
+
+.TP
+Description:
+
+The uniq function returns a sequence of the same kind as <sequence>, but with
+duplicates removed. Elements of <sequence> are considered equal under
+the equal function. The first occurrence of each element is retained,
+and the subsequent duplicates of that element, of any, are suppressed,
+such that the order of the elements is otherwise preserved.
