Hey! Does "hook" refer to the variable to which functions (or symbols) are added or does it refer to the *functions* that are added to the list variable? I think I've seen it used both ways.

I don't think Common Lisp has hooks.

pve: in general, to both. But I use meat for the functions, so I can hang meat on the hooks. ;-)

I have a list of symbols that name functions, and considered calling it a hook

pve: yes, the list is definitely a hook if the functions are called at specific point to allow for extensions.

(the variable holding the list)
