Hi guys. Parenscript rocks. I feel like I'm really rollerskating now..
There was a bug reported on *Tue Sep 30 21:28:05 UTC 2008 by* Daniel Gackle about the failure of &optional arguements. I just got bit by the bug, can we please get that one-liner pushed into the repository. Muchos gracais.
On a happier note here is a macro I wrote to enable tracing-ala-cl. Works with firebug. You'll need to (defvar *trace-level*). I don't do indentation but that would be an easy addition.
(defpsmacro console (&rest rest) `(console.log ,@rest))
(defpsmacro defun-trace (name args &rest body) (let* ((sname (ps::symbol-to-js name)) (tname (ps-gensym name)) (arg-names (loop for arg in args unless (eq arg '&optional) collect (if (consp arg) (car arg) arg))) (argpairs (loop for arg in arg-names nconc (list (ps::symbol-to-js arg) arg)))) `(progn (defun ,name ,arg-names (console *trace-level* ,sname ":" ,@argpairs) (incf *trace-level*) (let* ((rtn (,tname ,@arg-names))) (decf *trace-level*) (console *trace-level* ,sname "returned" rtn) (return rtn))) (defun ,tname ,args ,@body))))
Thanks much, Will
