include

Includes all of the constants defined in a library file in the module.

cdv clsp retrieve sha256tree
(mod (thing-to-hash)

(sha256tree thing-to-hash)
)

defun

Defines a function that can be called from anywhere within the module.

Chialisp

defun-inline

Defines an inline function that can be called from anywhere within the module. It simply replaces the call with the code within (like an easier to write but limited macro).
