Thank you, it is much clearer now! So, I'll have to rework my code to see where I can put ps:ps and where ps:ps*, because I'd prefer most of the code macro-expanded at compile time. I'm going currentyl through several lisp books, and I have decided to leave the onlisp for later when I get an better grasp on things, because when I first started with it, it became too advanced very fast for one that had no previous experience with lisp. _______________________________________________ parenscript-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/parenscript-devel
