6:14:06flip214slyrus: I get no error... just works as expected, with a few repaint glitches.
6:14:08slyrusOk, without that declamation, no problem. hmm....
6:14:57flip214and the red thing becomes a rectangle...
6:16:30slyrusyeah, that should be an oval. I don't think that's my bug :)
6:16:38beachslyrus: That's not how I would put it. Without that declamation, the behavior is incorrect without being reported. With it, it is incorrect, but reported as such.
6:17:37slyrusbeach: fair enough, but I was talking about the oval thing
6:18:00beachOk, without that declamation, no problem. hmm....
6:18:58|3b|`ACTION interprets with-compilation-unit as delaying the decision to signal the warning rather than just the actual signaling, though i don't see anything actually that specific when i look at how it is specified
6:57:41beachdtornabene: specbot is very handy for transmitting information about the standard to some #lisp participant that you are having a conversation with.
6:59:25beachslyrus: Your fix sounds reasonable to me.
6:59:50slyrusso, what's the proper way to, e.g., call #'identity on a sequence using map, if one doesn't know the type of sequence but wants to return a sequence of the same type?
7:16:37slyrusok, so the question is do I call copy-seq on the sequence, or do I only declare the type to be the car of the list, if the type is a list? I'm leaning towards the copy-seq approach.
15:39:08jackdanielanother popular choice is uiop. osicat gives you truly implementation-independent primitives for that though.
15:39:22jackdanielbut osicat depends on ffi (if that's a problem for you)
15:40:18malice`Yeah, I was wondering because http://eudoxia.me/article/common-lisp-sotu-2015 mentioned osicat as preferred one (not sure how legit the site is though)
15:40:21slyrusuiop is built in on modern systems with ASDF
15:41:54malice`They mentioned uiop as preferred one. I missed "don't" before "use osicat", lol.
15:43:08jackdanielslyrus: but built-in version may be different between systems, it's better to depend on uiop from quicklisp for being up-to-date. I have some doubts about uiop api stability too.
15:53:01malice`Can I somehow iterate on the pathname in UIOP? Like (with-each-file-in-path (file my-path) (delete-file file)) ?
