beforep
BEFOREP word1 word2
BEFORE? word1 word2
outputs TRUE if word1 comes before word2 in ASCII collating sequence
(for words of letters, in alphabetical order). Case-sensitivity is
determined by the value of CASEIGNOREDP. Note that if the inputs are
numbers, the result may not be the same as with LESSP; for example,
BEFOREP 3 12 is false because 3 collates after 1.
