Is this supposed to be kosher/halal/conformant?
(defmacro foo (n &optional ((s &key d f) '(42222 :f 33))) `(list ,f ,n ,s ,d)) it appears to work on SBCL, CCL and LW (just changed a few things and do not have an Allegro running) It is nice, but I believe that the CLHS says otherwise.

And why is this in pro@? -- With best regards, Stas.

Good catch. And yet... http://www.lispworks.com/documentation/HyperSpec/Body/03_dd.htm
And why is this in pro@?
Because I am a pro (albeit a small one) and this is a matter of inconsistencies in the spec?

It would appear to me that questions, which could be resolved by careful reading of the spec, are out of scope of this mailing list, but what do I know? -- With best regards, Stas.

Nothing stated there contradicts the previous section. optvars::= [&optional {var | (var [init-form [supplied-p-parameter]])}*] It is true that the the next section you cite clarifies that 'var' can be a destructuring list, however, the above can be confusing; at least it was to me.

Well, I learned something I did not know, and it may have refreshed people' memories. Is that so bad? I apologize for having wasted your obviously very valuable time.

Please don't be mean. On such a low traffic mailing list, with such a small community, I don't see what the problem is, and hostility won't help. Saying that it's off-topic, explaining why and suggesting an alternative list is fine, but there are tactful means to do it... -- Matt
