Dear Camm, thanks a lot for the support. I admit that when I first tried to get your attention a few years back, I might not have done it right, but anyway, here we are now.

Therefore, while we're at it can you add support for ~i and ~_ in format? >> * test-run-program.script >> TEST ABORTED: Condition in SYSTEM:STRCAT [or a callee]: >> INTERNAL-SIMPLE-PROGRAM-ERROR: MULTIPLE-VALUE-CALL [or a callee] >> requires less than sixty-seven arguments. > > Common lisp specifies an implementation should define a constant > call-arguments-limit which is at least 50.
