lib/deprecated

Do not add any new functions to this directory.

This directory contains the lib.misc sublibrary, which - as a location - is deprecated. Furthermore, some of the functions inside are of dubious utility, and should perhaps be avoided, while some functions may still be needed.

This directory does not play a role in the deprecation process for library functions. They should be deprecated in place, by putting a lib.warn or lib.warnIf call around the function.
