Hello,

I have a FROB functionality that I would like to make available both at run-time via a function and at compile-time via a macro (which in turn will call the function).

Are there any general conventions (apart from DEFINE- / MAKE-) for this kind of thing ? I'm having a hard time finding nice names for FROB the function and FROB the macro...

Thanks.

In CLOS/MOP, there's ensure-generic-function/defgeneric and ensure-class/defclass, for example. If the definitions are global, that's my preferred convention, too.
