[alexandria-devel] Add mkstr and simplify of 'symbolicate

I'd like to suggest adding Paul Graham's very useful function #'mkstr, and his #'symb can greatly simplify symbolicate (defun mkstr (&rest args) "Make a string out of the printed representations of the arguments." (with-output-to-string (s) (dolist (a args) (princ a s)))) (defun symb (&rest args) "Make a symbol out of the printed representations of the arguments." (intern (apply #'mkstr args))) (I'd prefer this name, but this definition could just replace symbolicate's.) Thanks, Liam
