Actually, the reason why logic.mac names operators in upper case is a conflict
with "and", "or", "not". Also, this code treats 1 and 0 as logical truth and
logical false (just for shorter input and output), and now it does not
distinct "true" and "false" from other atoms (to be fixed). This stuff
doesn't fits in the current Maxima predicates code.

Okay.

You are right. (There are already many functions with smashedtogethernames in
src/, so it would be nice to have a kind of coding standard, I think.)

I'll add some documentation and commit it.
