Re: macro returning more than one form

At the top level, PROGN is treated as if each contained expression appeared at the top level. So generally wrapping a PROGN around the result is precisely what you need to do.

However, since I see an IN-PACKAGE form in your example... beware that that IN-PACKAGE form will NOT affect the following DEFUN, because the symbols in it will have been read long before the IN-PACKAGE is executed.

What is the best way to write a macro that returns more than one form to the top level? E.g.

(in-package :xxx) (defun ...)

I've been wrapping a progn around the result, but LW doesn't like it very much, and SBCL seems to hate it.

Thanks pt
