\TYPE {mk_var : ((string # type) -> term)}

\SYNOPSIS
Constructs a variable of given name and type.

\DESCRIBE
{mk_var(`var`,":ty")} returns the variable {"var:ty"}.

\FAILURE

\COMMENTS
{mk_var} can be used to construct variables with names which are not
acceptable to the term parser. In particular, a variable with the name of a
known constant can be constructed using {mk_var}.
