+ Here is a more complex illustration, showing the three-element list,
+@code{((pine needles) oak maple)}, the first element of which is a
+two-element list:
+
+@example
+@group
+ --- --- --- --- --- ---
+ | | |--> | | |--> | | |--> nil
+ --- --- --- --- --- ---
+ | | |
+ | | |
+ | --> oak --> maple
+ |
+ | --- --- --- ---
+ --> | | |--> | | |--> nil
+ --- --- --- ---
+ | |
+ | |
+ --> pine --> needles
+@end group
+@end example
+
+ The same list represented in the first box notation looks like this:
+
+@example
+@group
+ -------------- -------------- --------------
+| car | cdr | | car | cdr | | car | cdr |
+| o | o------->| oak | o------->| maple | nil |
+| | | | | | | | | |
+ -- | --------- -------------- --------------
+ |
+ |
+ | -------------- ----------------
+ | | car | cdr | | car | cdr |
+ ------>| pine | o------->| needles | nil |
+ | | | | | |
+ -------------- ----------------
