I just noticed the function I wrote was replaced with
(dolist (key keys plist) (remf plist key))
but that does not match the behavior of remove-from-plist,
CL-USER> (alexandria:remove-from-plist (list :a 1 :b 2 :a 3) :a) (:B 2) CL-USER> (alexandria:delete-from-plist (list :a 1 :b 2 :a 3) :a) (:B 2 :A 3)
It also don't check for malformed plists. The commit message says the remf version is faster, but I found it to be around four times slower for some data and insignificantly different otherwise.
pushed (once again blindly beliving the patch author). but this time i also pushed a test at lest that tests for the removal of duplicate keys. sorry for blindly pushing the previous change. -- • attila lendvai • PGP: 963F 5D5F 45C7 DFCD 0A39 -- “Disregard for the preferences and interests of individuals alive today in order to pursue some distant social goal that their rulers have claimed is their duty to promote has been a common cause of misery for people throughout the ages.” — Isaiah Berlin (1909–1997)
