Ditto the thanks!  I've a question though: is there any difference
between using the keyword symbols and normal symbols in the exports
list?

e.g.
(defpackage mypackage
  (:use :common-lisp)
  (:export :foo :bar))
Vs.

(defpackage mypackage
  (:use :common-lisp)
  (:export foo bar))

Now that I think about it, I've seen people use keyword symbols for the
package names too.

Wow. Thanks. I've been trying to figure out what the FOO:BAR :BAZ
FOO::QUUX stuff has meant for a bit now and the stuff in the other
thread about cond and why parens go or don't go where they do. These
kinds of insights and tips are helping the n00b out alot.

Thank You All!

(sorry for shouting, but I'm happy, what can I say)

cheers,
Bruce
