iffLR : thm -> thm
STRUCTURE
SYNOPSIS
Returns the left-to-right direction of a “guarded” iff theorem
DESCRIPTION
A call to iffLR th, where th has the form
   A |- !x1 .. xn. p1 /\ .. /\ pm ==> !y... q1 /\ .. ==> ... ==> (l <=> r)
returns the left-to-right implication
   A |- !x1 .. xn. p1 /\ .. /\ pm ==> !y... q1 /\ .. ==> ... ==> l ==> r
The universal variables and various antecedents are said to “guard” the if-and-only-if conclusion l <=> r in this situation. They may be nested abitrarily deep, or not present at all. They are restored after a call to EQ_IMP_RULE is made.
FAILURE
Fails if the theorem is not of the form specified above.
