+.SS Function string-cmp
+
+.TP
+Syntax:
+
+ (string-cmp <left-string> <right-string>)
+
+.TP
+Semantics:
+
+The string-cmp function returns a negative integer if <left-string>
+is lexicographically prior to <right-string>, and a positive integer
+if the reverse situation is the case. Otherwise the strings are equal
+and zero is returned.
+
+If either or both of the strings are lazy, then they are only forced to the
+minimum extent necessary for the function to reach a conclusion and return the
+appropriate value, since there is no need to look beyond the first character
+position in which they differ.
+
+The lexicographic ordering is naive, based on the character code point
+values in Unicode taken as integers, without regard for locale-specific
+collation orders.
