impl_keep_tac : tactic
STRUCTURE
Tactic
SYNOPSIS
Implements a version of implication-left sequent calculus rule as tactic
DESCRIPTION
Given a goal of the form A ?- ((p ==> q) ==> r), an application of impl_tac will produce two sub-goals: A ?- p and A, p ?- (q ==> r). This can be useful if p should be dealt with in isolation, when, say, the tactics that solve p can’t safely be applied to q and/or r.

This tactic differs from impl_tac in that it keeps p as an assumption in the second sub-goal.

FAILURE
Fails if the goal is not an implication with another implication as its antecdent. Note that for the purpose of this tactic, a negation ~p is viewed as the implication p ==> F. This means that impl_tac will succeed when applied to goals whose conclusions are ~p ==> q, ~(p ==> q) and ~~p.
