## Detailed Description

This file contains functions for manipulating with the S-exp representation of OVAL objects and items.

Currently object and items have the same structure and the API distinction is just formal. However, the structure can diverge in the future and the API functions for manipulating with items should be used only with items and vice versa. The most recent description of the object and item structure can be found in this file and should be used as the main source of information for implementing new API functions. In the following text, the term `element' referers to the general structure which is used to represent the various components of an OVAL document, particularly the OVAL objects, items and entities.

The basic structure of an element looks like this:
(foo_object bar)
foo_object is the element name and bar is the value of the element. There can be 0 to n values. In case the element has some attributes set the structure changes to:
((foo_object :attr1 val1) bar)
where attr1 is the name of the attribute and val1 is the attribute's value. The colon in the attribute name signals that the attribute has a value.
