##  This file contains methods for records.
##  Compared to ⪆ 3, where records were used to represent domains and
##  all kinds of external arithmetic objects, in ⪆ 4 there is no
##  important role for records.
##  So the standard library provides only methods for `PrintObj', `String',
##  `=', and `<', and the latter two are not installed to compare records
##  with objects in other families.
