tgoal : defn -> proofs
STRUCTURE
Defn
SYNOPSIS
Set up a termination proof.
DESCRIPTION
tgoal defn sets up a termination proof for the function represented by defn. It creates a new goalstack and makes it the focus of subsequent goalstack operations.
FAILURE
tgoal defn fails if defn represents a non-recursive or primitive recursive function.

EXAMPLE
- val qsort_defn =
    Hol_defn "qsort"
       `(qsort ___ [] = []) /\
        (qsort ord (x::rst) =
            APPEND (qsort ord (FILTER ($~ o ord x) rst))
              (x :: qsort ord (FILTER (ord x) rst)))`;

- tgoal qsort_defn;
> val it =
   Proof manager status: 1 proof.
   1. Incomplete:
       Initial goal:
       ?R. WF R /\
           (!rst x ord. R (ord,FILTER ($~ o ord x) rst) (ord,x::rst)) /\
            !rst x ord. R (ord,FILTER (ord x) rst) (ord,x::rst)
