Does the standard specify what the truename of a dead symlink is?
No, but the assumption is that implementations will take steps to compute this truename, which might result in errors, and it is not portable to assume otherwise.
Well, asdf-utils:directory* is full of #+. That's the kind of code I like to avoid.
The whole point is that it has the #+ for each and every of the 9 active implementations plus 6 more, so you don't have to. (And yes there might be bugs or missing #+'es, but at least they only have to be fixed in one place.) Alternatively, there's IOLib. —♯ƒ • François-René ÐVB Rideau •Reflection&Cybernethics• http://fare.tunes.org Be liberal in what you accept and conservative in what you send. — Jon Postel
