Note to self:

[18:17] <yates> pjb: yes, i did read that [18:17] <adeht> alexandria:starts-with-subseq is terribly buggy :( [18:19] * KognizantKog (~user@72.168.55.98) has joined #lisp [18:20] <yates> pjb: have you read http://www.lispworks.com/documentation/HyperSpec/Body/26_glo_s.htm#satisfy_t... [18:20] <yates> ? [18:21] <yates> do you disagree with the definition? [18:23] * teggi (~teggi@113.172.40.96) has joined #lisp [18:24] <fe[nl]ix> adeht: how so ? [18:25] <adeht> fe[nl]ix, for example you'd expect (starts-with-subseq "foo" "oop" :start1 1) to return true... but (i) it passes args to mismatch in the reverse order so start1 becomes start2 and (ii) it compares the result of mismatch to the whole prefix's length, so returns false
