FYI - CLISP 2.33 support seems to be broken in CVS. Here's the contents of the *inferior-lisp* buffer when I attempt to load CLISP: [snip] Current point in control string: Value: ~D = #x~X = #o~O = #b~:,,' ,8B = ~E | Break 1 SWANK[2]>
I think this control string is legal and CLISP is broken.
It's not, and clisp is quite right, though its error message is somewhat poor. In SBCL: * (format nil "~:,,' ,8B" 1) debugger invoked on a SB-FORMAT:FORMAT-ERROR in thread 3429: error in FORMAT: parameters found after #\: or #\@ modifier ~:,,' ,8B ^ See also: The ANSI Standard, Section 22.3 Cheers, Christophe
