##  <#GAPDoc Label="[1]{alglie}">
##  A Lie algebra <M>L</M> is an algebra such that 
##  <M>x x = 0</M> and <M>x(yz) + y(zx) + z(xy) = 0</M>
##  for all <M>x, y, z \in L</M>.
##  A common way of creating a Lie algebra is by taking an associative
##  algebra together with the commutator as product.
##  Therefore the product of two elements <M>x, y</M> of a Lie algebra
##  is usually denoted by  <M>[x,y]</M>,
##  but in &GAP; this denotes the list of the elements <M>x</M> and <M>y</M>;
##  hence the product of elements is made by the usual <C>*</C>.
##  This gives no problems when dealing with Lie algebras given by a 
##  table of structure constants.
##  However, for matrix Lie algebras the situation is not so easy
##  as <C>*</C> denotes the ordinary (associative) matrix multiplication.
##  In &GAP; this problem is solved by wrapping 
##  elements of a matrix Lie algebra up as <C>LieObject</C>s,
##  and then define  the <C>*</C> for <C>LieObject</C>s to be the commutator
##  (see <Ref Sect="Lie Objects"/>).

##  <Description>
##  <A>one</A> is the identity in a field <M>F</M> of characteristic <M>p</M>.
##  The <M>p</M>-th power map of a restricted Lie algebra over <M>F</M>
##  satisfies the following relation.
##  <M>(x+y)^{[p]} = x^{[p]} + y^{[p]} + \sum_{i=1}^{p-1} s_i(x,y)</M>
##  where <M>i s_i(x,y)</M> is the coefficient of <M>T^{i-1}</M> in the polynomial
##  <M>( ad (Tx+y) )^{p-1} (x)</M> (see Jacobson, p. 187f.).
##  From this it follows that
##  <M>i s_i(x,y) = \sum [ \ldots [[[x,y],a_1],a_2]\ldots, a_{p-2}]</M> where
##  <M>a_j</M> is <M>x</M> or <M>y</M> where the sum is taken over all words

##  Here <A>C</A> must be a Cartan matrix. The function returns the

##  <Func Name="NilpotentQuotientOfFpLieAlgebra" Arg='FpL, max[, weights]'/>
##
##  <Description>
##
##  Here <A>FpL</A> is a finitely presented Lie algebra.
##  Let <M>K</M> be the quotient of <A>FpL</A> by the <A>max</A>+1-th term
##  of its lower central series.
##  This function calculates a surjective homomorphism from <A>FpL</A>
##  onto <M>K</M>.
##  When called with the third argument <A>weights</A>,
##  the <M>k</M>-th generator of <A>FpL</A> gets assigned the <M>k</M>-th
##  element of the list <A>weights</A>.
##  In that case a quotient is calculated of <A>FpL</A>
##  by the ideal generated by all elements of weight <A>max</A>+1.
##  If the list <A>weights</A> only consists of <M>1</M>'s
##  then the two calls are equivalent.
##  The default value of <A>weights</A> is a list (of length equal to the
##  number of generators of <A>FpL</A>) consisting of <M>1</M>'s.
##  <P/>
##  If the relators of <A>FpL</A> are homogeneous,
##  then the resulting  algebra is naturally graded.

##  be its Jennings series (see&nbsp;<Ref Func="JenningsSeries"/>).

##  Now the Jennings-Lie algebra <M>L</M> of <A>G</A> is the direct sum

##  The Lie bracket on <M>L</M> is induced by the commutator in <A>G</A>.

##  In the canonical basis of <M>L</M> this <M>p</M>-map is added as an
