; Map the given symbol name to a name that is a valid file name
; on most computer file systems. In particular, the procedure
; replaces the following characters:
; 
;         character(s)  becomes
;            @          at
;            +          plus
;            *          star
;            /          slash
;            ?          p (predicate)
;            !          b (bang)
;            =          eq
;            ->         -to-
;            <          lt
;            <=         le
;            >          gt
;            >=         ge
; 
; In addition a name that consists of a minus sign exclusively
; ("-") is replaced with "minus". All other special characters
; are replaced with an underscore. Non-special characters include
; the letters a-z, the digits 0-9, the minus sign, and the dot.
; 
; Example:    (name->file-name "sys:stat-pipe?")   ==>  "sys_stat-pipep"
;             (name->file-name "a->b")             ==>  "a-to-b"
;             (name->file-name "*foo*")            ==>  "starfoostar"
