Hi Alex,

I think all you have to do is to close the tags with  like this:





This seems to validate.

Oh, sorry! I just notice that the current solution (i.e. using multiple
 tags) is not valid HTML.

How can this be fixed? Is it not possible to give multiple names?

Hi,

After a little discussion on IRC, Alex decided to change the doc/refC.html so 
that the two lines (43, 44) in doc/rlook.html were no longer needed. Now (doc 
'caar), (doc 'cadr) and friends will also work. (doc 'NIL), however, was 
considered not interesting enough to bother with. I can agree.

(doc 'caar), (doc 'cadr), (doc 'NIL)

[Jon Kleiser]

Hi,

In August, Christophe pointed at some problems with looking up functions like 
'caar' and 'cadr' in the docs.


I fixed the problem in doc/rlook.html by adding a couple of lines (43, 44).
Now I see there are similar problems when doing (doc 'caar) and (doc 'cadr), 
and also (doc 'NIL).
In rlook.html, lookup on variants of 'caar' points you to doc/refC.html#cXr, 
and lookup on NIL points to doc/ref.html#nilSym. It shouldn’t be too hard to 
achieve the same for the (doc 'sym) function.

I also had to try (doc 'sym), e.g. (doc 'doc), in ersatz, but there I got
0:38: execution error: Bad name for file. some object (-37)
I’m not sure what it takes to fix that.

The reason why (doc 'sym) works at all on my Mac (I was surprised it still 
did), is that an environment variable BROWSER is set to "openurl.sh" (without 
the quotes), and I have a file ~/script/openurl.sh containing this:

#!/bin/sh
osascript -e "open location \"$1\""
