Hi -- I'd be grateful if someone can answer the question below, even in the negative, but I can work around the issue so please don't spend more than a moment on this.
In ANSI Common Lisp, (typep stream 'string-stream) is true when stream is connected to a stream (hence not to a file). In non-ANSI GCL, the type of such a stream is 'stream, not 'string-stream, and the only way I found (after considerable searching) to do such a query is as follows: (si::stream-name stream) appears to return NIL if and only if stream is a string-stream. QUESTION: For non-ANSI GCL, is this correct for both past and future versions, or is there a better way to identify string-streams? Thanks. If there is a different list I should query instead, please let me know (and, my apologies).
