Oh, well, if it's withdrawn from slib then there's nothing for guile to stay compatible with. > - The guile FORMAT attempts to be an extension of Common Lisp FORMAT, > i.e. that all CL format directives are supported without changes > (except when documented otherwise, such as ~_)? Yes, basically, I think. There's some things missing though, like ~< ~>. > - Differences in behaviour between a valid CL format string and the > same string in guile (except when documented otherwise) are bugs in > format.scm that I should report? Yep. I think there's some doubtful treatment of digits in some of the floating point output, that's the sort of thing that really ought to be the same as CL. > - The reference to which I can point translators is the node > "Formatted Output" in the guile documentation? For guile, yes. What other schemes are doing is another matter. srfi-28 and srfi-48 specify versions of format too. In the latter ~t is different, and ~h is an addition. _______________________________________________ Guile-devel mailing list Guile-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/guile-devel
