| ANSI Common Lisp  2 Syntax  2.1 Character Syntax  2.1.4 Character Syntax Types 2.1.4.1   Constituent CharactersConstituent characters are used in tokens.
A token is a representation of a number or a symbol.  
Examples of constituent characters are letters and digits.
Letters in symbol names are sometimes converted to 
letters in the opposite case when the name is read;
see Section 23.1.2 Effect of Readtable Case on the Lisp Reader.
Case conversion can be suppressed by the use 
of single escape or multiple escape characters.
