It looks the same as (args). Is it documented, I cannot find it.

'$args' is an internal variable containing the list of arguments of the current function or macro arguments not bound by function parameters, 'args' is a function to retrieve the contents of '$args'.

I think it would be nice to have in the manual a table that displays all the system symbols and a description of each.

Isn't the left frame of ...\newlisp\manual_frame.html good as a listing?
There is also (args) which is documented.

It's a good listing, but no descriptions.
