Hi,
How about this:
(de singleLetter? (item) (if (and (=1 (length item)) (or (low? item) (upp?
item))) 1 NIL))
This returns 1 if true then NIL for false.
But if you just need NIL for false and then the letter itself for true, then
can be shorten into this:
(de singleLetter? (item) (and (=1 (length item)) (or (low? item) (upp?
item))))
BR,geo

Sorry, no!
It is shorter, faster and more readable to do:
(or (>= "Z" C "A") (>= "z" C "a"))
