-------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
In order to clarify the difference between isInfixOf and isSubsequenceOf,
I submit a patch which changes the wording from
"The 'isSubsequenceOf' function takes two lists and returns 'True' if the
first list is a subsequence of the second list."
to
"The 'isSubsequenceOf' function takes two lists and returns 'True' if all
the elements of the first list occur, in order, in the second. The
elements do not have to occur consecutively."
