\DOC string_of_type

\TYPE {string_of_type : hol_type -> string}

\SYNOPSIS
Converts a HOL type to a string representation.

\DESCRIBE
The call {string_of_type ty} produces a textual representation of the type {ty} 
as a string, similar to what is printed automatically at the toplevel, though 
without the surrounding quotes and colon.

\FAILURE
Never fails.

\EXAMPLE
{
  # string_of_type bool_ty;;
  val it : string = "bool"
}

\SEEALSO
string_of_term, string_of_thm.
