You recently answered a question about changes in "format" with the new release as shown in the text below.
"If you want to print the number as an integer in a four-digit field," "then convert it to an integer using the (integer) function first:" "(format nil "%04d" (integer ( * (fetch TopPad) 1.0E-4)))" When I tried to use the following (bind ?pos4-11 (format nil "%4d" (integer (* (fetch TopPad) 0.001)))) for a TopPad value of 502500, I do not get the expected [per Unix man pages] addition of "0" added to the left. Expected 0502 Received " "502. Sometimes the value for TopPad will have 4 digits, sometimes it will have 3. Must I check the length and pad on my own?
