Hi Venkatesan,

Thanks for your question. You've stumbled on a bug that I've corrected locally but mistakenly failed to update on github.

I'll remedy this later today.

My apologies for my oversite.

regards,

Hi,

I am a new user of log5 (and lisp in general). When I tried playing around, I found that log5 has a problem printing variables. For eg, 

>(setf a 15)

>(log-for (info) "a is ~a~%" a)

[after setting up a sender and importing all symbols from log5]

It prints:

3500123556 (INFO) a is A

I expected to see: a is 5

Is there anything I am missing? I tried grokking the source, and tried putting a , before value in the log-for macro like in:

(defmacro log-for (category-spec message &rest args)
  (if (%log-p category-spec)
      `(let ((category (load-time-value
            (update-category-spec nil ',category-spec)
            t)))
     (handle-message
      (category-id category)
      ,message
      ,@args))
      `(,values)))

But this did not help. Can anyone please let me know how to achieve what I want? If it is useful, I am using sbcl 64 bit on Centos 5.5 and the latest clog5 (v0.3.1)

Thanks,
Venkatesan
