22.1.3.3.1 Package Prefixes for Symbols</H2> <P>
<A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_p.htm#package_prefix"><I>Package prefixes</I></A> are printed if necessary. The rules for <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_p.htm#package_prefix"><I>package prefixes</I></A> are as follows. When the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_s.htm#symbol"><I>symbol</I></A> is printed, if it is in the <TT>KEYWORD</TT> package, then it is printed with a preceding <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_c.htm#colon"><I>colon</I></A>; otherwise, if it is <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_a.htm#accessible"><I>accessible</I></A> in the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_c.htm#current_package"><I>current package</I></A>, it is printed without any <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_p.htm#package_prefix"><I>package prefix</I></A>; otherwise, it is printed with a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_p.htm#package_prefix"><I>package prefix</I></A>. <P>
A <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_s.htm#symbol"><I>symbol</I></A> that is <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_a.htm#apparently_uninterned"><I>apparently uninterned</I></A> is printed preceded by ``<TT>#:</TT>'' if <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="v_pr_gen.htm#STprint-gensymST"><B>*print-gensym*</B></A> is <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_t.htm#true"><I>true</I></A> and <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_p.htm#printer_escaping"><I>printer escaping</I></A> is enabled; if <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="v_pr_gen.htm#STprint-gensymST"><B>*print-gensym*</B></A> is <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#false"><I>false</I></A> or <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_p.htm#printer_escaping"><I>printer escaping</I></A> is disabled, then the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_s.htm#symbol"><I>symbol</I></A> is printed without a prefix, as if it were in the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_c.htm#current_package"><I>current package</I></A>. <P>
Because the <TT>#:</TT> syntax does not intern the following symbol, it is necessary to use circular-list syntax if <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="v_pr_cir.htm#STprint-circleST"><B>*print-circle*</B></A> is <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_t.htm#true"><I>true</I></A> and the same uninterned symbol appears several times in an expression to be printed. For example, the result of <P>
<PRE>
(let ((x (make-symbol &quot;FOO&quot;))) (list x x))
</PRE>
</TT> would be printed as <TT>(#:foo #:foo)</TT> if <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="v_pr_cir.htm#STprint-circleST"><B>*print-circle*</B></A> were <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#false"><I>false</I></A>, but as <TT>(#1=#:foo #1#)</TT> if <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="v_pr_cir.htm#STprint-circleST"><B>*print-circle*</B></A> were <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_t.htm#true"><I>true</I></A>. <P>
A summary of the preceding package prefix rules follows: <P>
<P><DL><DT><TT>foo:bar</TT> <P><DD>
<TT>foo:bar</TT> is printed when <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_s.htm#symbol"><I>symbol</I></A> <TT>bar</TT> is external in its <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_h.htm#home_package"><I>home package</I></A> <TT>foo</TT> and is not <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_a.htm#accessible"><I>accessible</I></A> in the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_c.htm#current_package"><I>current package</I></A>. <P>
<DT><TT>foo::bar</TT> <P><DD>
<TT>foo::bar</TT> is printed when <TT>bar</TT> is internal in its <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_h.htm#home_package"><I>home package</I></A> <TT>foo</TT> and is not <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_a.htm#accessible"><I>accessible</I></A> in the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_c.htm#current_package"><I>current package</I></A>. <P>
<DT><TT>:bar</TT> <P><DD>
<TT>:bar</TT> is printed when the home package of <TT>bar</TT> is the <TT>KEYWORD</TT> package. <P>
<DT><TT>#:bar</TT> <P><DD>
<TT>#:bar</TT> is printed when <TT>bar</TT> is <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_a.htm#apparently_uninterned"><I>apparently uninterned</I></A>, even in the pathological case that <TT>bar</TT> has no <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_h.htm#home_package"><I>home package</I></A> but is nevertheless somehow <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_a.htm#accessible"><I>accessible</I></A> in the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_c.htm#current_package"><I>current package</I></A>. <P></DL><P>
