LISP - Xanalys LispWorks / Franz Allegro - which one fails?
ilias

and *maybe* this became true:
*Xanalys LispWorks is the incorrect implementation*
:::short-form of claim:
(set-syntax-from-char #\] #\) ) ; => T
(set-syntax-from-char #\[ #\( ) ; => T
[+ 3 2] ;ncs => 5
On Windows:
Franz Allegro : does *not* execute the line [+ 3 2].
Xalanys Lispworks: executes the line [+ 3 2].
Implementation-specific behaviour?
Look at the lines again:
(set-syntax-from-char #\] #\) ) ; => T
(set-syntax-from-char #\[ #\( ) ; => T
Essential core functionality.
There is no tolerance.
C.l.l. don't cares?
The vendors don't care?
Or is there a 'secret agreement'?
Don't fight about syntax and standard-implementations.
I don't know.
I know that one implementation is not conforming.
If you think that Franz Allegro does the right thing,
then there is only one conclusion:
*Xanalys LispWorks is the incorrect implementation*

It's still a secret. The black helicopters have already been
dispatched, and the usenet neuralizer is about to be deployed.
Please watch the screen closely and do not turn your computer off.

Ok, now that's it no secret anymore: Of course! The standard is
deliberately unclear in order to confuse bastards who want to pollute
the dearest part our beloved syntax, to make them either give up and
join the club, or go back to the curly place they come from.

What is a neuralizer? :)

Darn! I had forgotten! I don't remember if I saw the movie either.
It did come out in 97 didn't it? :)
