;   In FOO: Undefined function BLAH-BLAH

Notice the colon (:) after FOO.

It would be nice if typing meta-. in emacs could figure out to go to the definition for FOO, rather than just saying, "No known definition for for: FOO:"

That's a good idea, I tripped over this many times. Done in CVS.

There're two new variables now (defvar *find-definitions-right-trim* ",:.") (defvar *find-definitions-left-trim* "#:").

When a symbol is not found, it tries to trim it using string-right-trim and string-left-trim. The left trim is useful for #:foo symbols in package definitions.
