Re: [cmucl-imp] DIRECTORY and symlinks

I'm not asking for a new API.

Then you won't get a portable solution. And you won't get non-truenames without specifying some non-standard flag to DIRECTORY. And you won't get truename to mean something different to DIRECTORY and to TRUENAME without confusing users.

Well, it's only one implementation and Ray tends to be the opposite of stubborn.

If you're looking for CMUCL-only thing, then (directory "*.*" :follow-links nil :truenamep nil) will do what you want (I'm not sure :follow-links nil does anything when you already specify :truenamep nil). —♯ƒ • François-René ÐVB Rideau •Reflection&Cybernethics• http://fare.tunes.org There are a thousand hacking at the branches of evil to one who is striking at the root. — Thoreau
