The TABLE argument must be an alist where the car of each element must be a
string. Ok, but i have nowhere found anything about the cdr of the elements,
inall examples it is a sequence of numbers beginning from 1 but no explanation
why and no word about the cdr's in general! Am i blind?

First i supposed that the cdr of an element is returned when the car matches
but obviously this is not the case ;-)

Ok, what about these mysterious cdr's?

Thanks a lot,
Klaus
