[slime-devel] [PATCH] arglist printing in LW 4.1

This fixes arglist printing in Lispworks 4.1, and otherwise it should be harmless. I also added a comment in ChaneLog. Is this correct? -- Lisp can accomodate a wide range of psychological problems.

Perfectly so. Patch applied, thankee. I do need to update my credits-generating script to escape norwegian characters somehow. Do you happen to know how to write an 'ø' in texinfo?

You can't, but o's will do fine. -- Lisp can accomodate a wide range of psychological problems.

We'll see about that! Can always conditionally drop down to assembly language (TeX) ;-) -Luke

Well, good luck then. :-) Maybe you will find this thread helpful: http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-texinfo/2003-12/msg00088.html I didn't quite get what the problem was, but it seemed awfully difficult to get postscript output with ISO-8859-1. -- Lisp can accomodate a wide range of psychological problems.

No worries if you use TeX commands instead of character sets: @tex \o @end tex I've fixed it for the postscript version, but not yet for the info version (where it's currently "o followed by space"). If any texinfo gurus are lurking they may know how to fix my macro: @c O with a slash through it (norwegian) @macro norsko @iftex @tex \\o @end tex @end iftex @ifnottex o @end ifnottex @end macro P.S., for some reason I had to 'rm slime.aux' to make tex happy. -Luke

Try this instead: @c O with a slash through it (norwegian) @macro norsko @iftex @tex \\o @end tex @end iftex @ifnottex o@c no space after the o, thanks! @end ifnottex @end macro
