deffunction (doubled f is ugly) def-function (hyphen is bad for such a common operator) defunction (too long, reminds us of "dysfunction") defunc (would have to be pronounced "De Funk") defun and all the following are bad because you might be tempted to use them for data. defn dfn def define </pedantic> -jd _______________________________________________ Gardeners mailing list [email protected] http://www.lispniks.com/mailman/listinfo/gardeners
