\DOC basic_convs

\TYPE {basic_convs : unit -> (string * (term * conv)) list}

\SYNOPSIS
List the current default conversions used in rewriting and simplification.

\DESCRIBE
The HOL Light rewriter ({REWRITE_TAC} etc.) and simplifier ({SIMP_TAC} etc.)
have default sets of (conditional) equations and other conversions that are
applied by default, except in the {PURE_} variants. A call to {basic_convs()}
returns the current set of conversions.

\FAILURE
Never fails.

\EXAMPLE
In the default HOL Light state the only conversions are for generalized beta
reduction and the reduction of pattern-matching constructs such as 
{match...with}. All the other default simplifications are done by rewrite
rules. 
{
  # basic_convs();;
  val it : (string * (term * conv)) list =
    [("FUN_ONEPATTERN_CONV", (`_FUNCTION (\y z. P y z) x`, <fun>));
     ("MATCH_ONEPATTERN_CONV", (`_MATCH x (\y z. P y z)`, <fun>));
     ("FUN_SEQPATTERN_CONV", (`_FUNCTION (_SEQPATTERN r s) x`, <fun>));
     ("MATCH_SEQPATTERN_CONV", (`_MATCH x (_SEQPATTERN r s)`, <fun>));
     ("GEN_BETA_CONV", (`GABS (\a. b) c`, <fun>))]
}
