OK, so what is the problem with CMUCL that means it can't use read-sequence here? I know it used to be broken (did partial reads) but I thought that was fixed ages ago. Can we not report this as a bug to the cmucl developers? Thanks for cleaning up my other mess. Now I have to look through your structure stuff and who-calls, see what I can steal for sbcl :-) -dan -- http://web.metacircles.com/cirCLe_CD - Free Software Lisp/Linux distro
