Comment(by benjaminfjones):

 I've uploaded a first shot at a template for the functions we want to add
 in this ticket. The patch exposes the general complex exponential integral
 function `En` also called `Function_exp_integral_En` by adding a class to
 `sage/functions/special.py` (I can change where it goes later on if needed
 / desired). Numerical evaluation is handled by mpmath and symbolics are
 handled by Sage (e.g. the derivative) and Maxima (e.g. the
 antiderivative).

 One of the docstring examples shows that the integral of `e^(-x) *
 log(x+1)` from the ticket description is now evaluated properly.

 Any comments or suggestions?
