Hi, I'm new to parenscript but maybe I can answer this one.  I believe the problem you are having is package related.  'new' is a macro in the parenscript package, so you need to call it like this:

(parenscript:ps (parenscript:new (date)))

I recommend you use-package parenscript and you wouldn't have this problem:

CL-USER> (use-package :parenscript)
T
CL-USER> (ps (new (date)))
"new date();"

Hope this helps,

Anthony

Hello

i am new to parenscript. i am stuck with my attempt to create an
instance of a new object.

Why does:

(parenscript:ps (new (*date)))

translates to:

"new(Date());"

instead of:

"new Date();"

i tried various possiblities but simply could not get it. How does on
do it properly?

Thanks for help
Matus
