Hi,

Do alexandria developers consider including PROG1-LET? (I find it quite useful, and it is included in the very early lines of nearly every of my utils.lisp files.)

(defmacro prog1-let ((var val) &body body) `(let ((,var ,val)) ,@body ,var))

I know from experience that this scheme comes up occasionally, but I think it's an abuse of macros. It's purely a syntactic abbreviation that does neither save much typing nor does the name improve readability.
