Subject: <A HREF="iss199_m.htm">jun90-trivial-issues</A><P>

<P>

<B>Issue:</B> <A HREF="iss199_m.htm">JUN90-TRIVIAL-ISSUES</A><P>
|
||
|
|
<B>Status:</B> Passed Jun 90<P>
|

<P>
|

|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
Here is a list of (what I consider to be) fairly trivial issues<P>
|
||
|
|
from the list I circulated some time ago, along with a one-line<P>
|
||
|
|
fix for the problem. I'm hoping they are noncontroversial enough<P>
|
||
|
|
so that we can just have one vote to approve the whole bunch. If<P>
|
||
|
|
you *really* want to see a full cleanup issue and have a separate<P>
|
||
|
|
vote on any of these, let me know....<P>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
The numbering follows my original list.<P>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
(3) Issue <A HREF="iss273.htm">PRINT-CASE-PRINT-ESCAPE-INTERACTION</A> specifies some<P>
|
||
|
|
behavior "when <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/v_pr_esc.htm#STprint-escapeST"><B>*PRINT-ESCAPE*</B></A> is T". Change "T" to "true" but<P>
|
||
|
|
don't change the behavior.<P>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
(4) Rule (2) in issue <A HREF="iss279_m.htm">PUSH-EVALUATION-ORDER</A> specifies some<P>
|
||
|
|
behavior for the macro <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/f_getf.htm#getf"><B>GETF</B></A>, but <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/f_getf.htm#getf"><B>GETF</B></A> is actually a function.<P>
|
||
|
|
Since the order of evaluation of its arguments is already <P>
|
||
|
|
well-specified, remove <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/f_getf.htm#getf"><B>GETF</B></A> from the list of affected macros<P>
|
||
|
|
in this issue.<P>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
(5) Issue <A HREF="iss256.htm">PATHNAME-COMPONENT-CASE</A> specifies some behavior for<P>
|
||
|
|
a function named TRANSLATE-WILD-PATHNAME, which is not fully<P>
|
||
|
|
defined anywhere else. Change the reference to <P>
|
||
|
|
"TRANSLATE-WILD-PATHNAME" to "TRANSLATE-PATHNAME".<P>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
(9) The symbols <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/t_class.htm#class"><B>CLASS</B></A>, <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/t_generi.htm#generic-function"><B>GENERIC-FUNCTION</B></A>, <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/t_method.htm#method"><B>METHOD</B></A>, and<P>
|
||
|
|
<A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/t_stu_ob.htm#structure-object"><B>STRUCTURE-OBJECT</B></A> were not formally defined as <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/t_class.htm#class"><B>class</B></A> names in<P>
|
||
|
|
CLOS chapters 1 and 2, although they were documented in the<P>
|
||
|
|
Aug 89 draft of the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/07_ffb.htm#standard"><B>standard</B></A>. Formally add these classes to<P>
|
||
|
|
the language as documented in the draft.<P>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
(11) Clarify that symbols that are defined as <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/m_loop.htm#loop"><B>LOOP</B></A> macro<P>
|
||
|
|
keywords are not exported from the COMMON-LISP package unless<P>
|
||
|
|
they have some other definition in the language. The equality<P>
|
||
|
|
test used by <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/m_loop.htm#loop"><B>LOOP</B></A> to match keywords is a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/f_stgeq_.htm#stringEQ"><B>STRING=</B></A> test on the <P>
|
||
|
|
SYMBOL-NAMEs.<P>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
(14) Issue <A HREF="iss075_m.htm">CONDITION-RESTARTS</A> states that restarts have dynamic<P>
|
||
|
|
extent, but doesn't say what the lifetime of that extent is.<P>
|
||
|
|
Clarify that it is the same as the lifetime of the binding of<P>
|
||
|
|
the restart.<P>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
(24) The character committee proposals stated that <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/t_base_s.htm#base-string"><B>BASE-STRING</B></A><P>
|
||
|
|
and <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/t_smp_ba.htm#simple-base-string"><B>SIMPLE-BASE-STRING</B></A> are valid as type specifiers that<P>
|
||
|
|
abbreviate. Clarify that the list forms of these type specifiers<P>
|
||
|
|
have the same syntax as the list form of the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/a_string.htm#string"><B>STRING</B></A> type<P>
|
||
|
|
specifier.<P>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
(25) Clarify that, when there is a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/f_dribbl.htm#dribble"><B>dribble</B></A> file already open,<P>
|
||
|
|
the behavior when <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/f_dribbl.htm#dribble"><B>DRIBBLE</B></A> is called again to open another <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/f_dribbl.htm#dribble"><B>dribble</B></A><P>
|
||
|
|
file is unspecified. (Some possible behaviors are: close<P>
|
||
|
|
the first file; <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/f_dribbl.htm#dribble"><B>dribble</B></A> to both files; leave the first file open<P>
|
||
|
|
but <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/f_dribbl.htm#dribble"><B>dribble</B></A> only to the second until it is closed; or to ignore<P>
|
||
|
|
the new <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/f_dribbl.htm#dribble"><B>dribble</B></A> request entirely.)<P>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
(27) Clarify that <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/a_setf.htm#setf"><B>SETF</B></A> places <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/s_the.htm#the"><B>THE</B></A> and <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="../Body/f_apply.htm#apply"><B>APPLY</B></A> support multiple<P>
|
||
|
|
store variables. (See issue <A HREF="iss309.htm">SETF-MULTIPLE-STORE-VARIABLES</A>.)<P>
