Subject: Re: Why is in-package a macro? From: Erik Naggum <erik@naggum.no> Date: 28 Oct 2002 00:57:32 +0000 Newsgroups: comp.lang.lisp Message-ID: <3244755452388177@naggum.no> * Peter Seibel | Just a guess--I'm hoping that when I understand why it's a macro I'll | have increased either my understanding of macros or of Lisp history. It used to be an operator that the evaluator/loader/etc had to recognize specially. It is better to let `eval-when´ be that operator and make `in-package´ be a macro that expands to use it. -- Erik Naggum, Oslo, Norway Act from reason, and failure makes you rethink and study harder.
