Eric S. Raymond 41dc743ded Added and fixed documentation.
(ring-rotate):  Nuked.  It was (a) unused, and (b) totally broken (as in,
any attempt to use it died with a type error, and when I patched it to fix
that I found its algorithm was broken).
(ring-ref): Added doc string.

;;; Commentary:
;;; This code defines a ring data structure. A ring is a
;;; (hd-index tl-index . vector)
;;; list. You can insert to, remove from, and rotate a ring. When the ring
;;; fills up, insertions cause the oldest elts to be quietly dropped.
;;;
;;; In ring-ref, 0 is the index of the newest element. Higher indexes
;;; correspond to older elements until they wrap.
;;;
;;; HEAD = index of the newest item on the ring.
;;; TAIL = index of the oldest item on the ring.
;;;
;;; These functions are used by the input history mechanism, but they can
;;; be used for other purposes as well.
;;; Code:
