Hi, In a parser I'm working on, trying to convert hand-written documents into XHTML form. And for this purpose using CL-WHO integrated within META-SEXP. Because of character-by-character parsing, I need to escape unrecognized atoms on-the-fly. At the moment, I'm using below method. (elt (cl-who:escape-string (make-string 1 :initial-element character-needs-escaping)) 0) Yep, quite nasty code piece to escape a single character. Therefore, I'd ask if it'd be possible to expose the character escaping routines. (If you approve the proposal, I'm volunteered to send a patch.) Regards.
