Ah.. I see what you are saying. However, I am not trying to emulate C. Can you
please direct me to the point where the docs says C type routines? I will fix
that. They are not C types. They do take an object as the parameter for the
reason of being able to say:

? t_alpha(65) -- 1
? t_alpha(188) -- 0
? t_alpha('A') -- 1
? t_alpha("ABC") -- 1
? t_alpha("AC#") -- 0

i.e. it will handle atoms or sequences.
