I've added a vector-append-subvector procedure to VectorsCowan, my proposal for a general vector library for R7RS-large. A Scheme is free to implement this portably or using unsafe primitives. > Is here a broad consent that it is not worth to care about, because one > should disregard vectors in favour of gap buffers? Gap buffers, or indirect vectors that can be swapped out, or any number of other things. -- John Cowan http://www.ccil.org/~cowan co...@ccil.org I must confess that I have very little notion of what [s. 4 of the British Trade Marks Act, 1938] is intended to convey, and particularly the sentence of 253 words, as I make them, which constitutes sub-section 1. I doubt if the entire statute book could be successfully searched for a sentence of equal length which is of more fuliginous obscurity. --MacKinnon LJ, 1940 _______________________________________________ Scheme-reports mailing list Scheme-reports@scheme-reports.org http://lists.scheme-reports.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/scheme-reports
