4:19:54beachBike: When I wrote Flexichain, the possibility of defining extended sequence types did not exist, so I didn't have the sequence functions in mind for the client code using Flexichain.
4:20:32beachBike: I would have to go back and look at Climacs and see what uses could be replaced by calls to the sequence functions.
8:42:06splittistI seem to remember that using CL-PPCRE (for example) with Climacs buffers might have been easier had they been CL sequences.
11:19:10splittistcl-ppcre coerces strings to something that you can call SCHAR on; on LispWorks that is something other than simple-string (lw:simple-text-string), so there is hope...
12:26:12ShinmeraExtensible sequences in cl-ppcre would only really make sense if it was rewritten to not use random access everywhere.
12:26:45ShinmeraWhich is to say, all loops would need to use the sequence iteration constructs
