Hi Mike,

| Anyone know what recspace is (see question below)? I've not come
| across it before.

This type is used internally in HOL Light's type definition package.
Roughly, ":(A)recspace" is a type large enough to hold any finitely
branching recursive type built up from starting types that can be
injected into ":A". All types defined by "define_type" are carved
out of a type of the form, at least in HOL Light. It's defined in
the HOL Light source file "ind-types.ml". I believe the HOL4 type
definition package uses, or at least used, the same code:

  src/datatype/ind_typeScript.sml
  src/datatype/ind_types.sml

John.
