Hi,

here's my current set of patches against iterate-1.0.9

One thing I want to mention here is to bump the version number. I believe J.Amsterdam last was 1.2, so the 200X version should start with 1.3. I did so in the source.

The diffs are in -u3 format, and if Andreas perfers small increments, I've included my RCS ,v file.

Andreas, are you going to put up a new release based on that? If you do so, I'll base my next patches upon it.

What I did not include so far is o changed order of special-form/macro recognition. Are there any more arguments to debate? o walk-locally (currently not quite correct) o some restricted macrolet support o some more manual clarifications

Here's a mini-Changelog

o package.lisp + use declaim + use (export list): (export +clause-names+ '#:iterate) + export defsynonym defmacro-driver

o iterate.lisp + (declaim (declaration declare-variables)) + listp -> consp + (prog1 (car body) (pop body)) -> (pop body) + (code-char 0) is portable, #\nul or #\null is not + counting uses '(subst (var exp) #) instead of expr + bang-vars-1: tail-call optimized o for in-package(s) evaluates package(s) argument o for in-package(s) work as generators + use #:start/beginning to (hopefully) work with Allegro modern style + walk-flet: accepts declarations + remove walk-identity and use (x . nil) consistently in *special-form-alist*

o iter-man.tex + drop note about future with-hashtable/package-iterator

o iter-pg.lisp + multiple-value-prog1 + avoid zerop length on lists

; ---------------- DONE o minor CL optimizations: consp, pop, export, declaim o for in-package(s) evaluates package(s) argument o for in-package(s) works as generator o for in-hashtable usable as generator o for in-hashtable supports destructuring o for in-packages was broken because of 'pkgs symbol-types are not evaluated in with-package-iterator and must not be empty => consp o (for vars DO-NEXT) now binds vars o use dsetq instead of destructuring-bind for consistency of templates o a few more package exports o added more testcases o (dsetq (values x nil y)) works
