This query isn't written correctly; you can't use a plain function
call in the middle of a query any more than you can use one in the
middle of the LHS of a rule. You mean something like
(defquery search (declare (variables ?in)) (A (b ?out&:(contains ?in ?
out))))
or
(defquery search (declare (variables ?in)) (A (b ?out) (test
(contains ?in ?out)))
(defquery search2 (declare (variables ?in)) (A (b ?in)))
(bind ?result (run-query* search2 (list d e f g)))
(while (?result next) (printout t (?result getString a)))
This one also won't work; it would match if the multislot b held a
single item which was a list identical to the parameter. Your first
version is a fine way to do what you want.
