</div>I massaged your patch (notably made compile-file* a gf to move your<br>

This one does not allow one to *CHANGE* the way COMPILE-FILE* behaves.<br><br>I profoundly dislike generic functions API precisely for this reason. There is a base function, someone adds an around method and what about the next around? How do you remove the previous one?<br>

<br>The other solution based on a simple closure is simpler, has a smaller overhead and allows one to fall back to the original method, reinstating COMPILE-FILE* definition.<br><br>Juanjo<br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Instituto de Física Fundamental, CSIC<br>
