Subject: bug#14892: Enhance Elisp compare functions (< <= > >=) to take var args
Date: Wed, 17 Jul 2013 11:58:09 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAFM41H23PVwAr9r_-0FdiC7wgGokmF-Wgjpc_UR9LYbdmDdciQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Other dialects of Lisp implement < and cousin functions with var args. eg
(< 1 x 10) would determine whether x is between 1 and 10. (apply '<=
some-list) would determine whether some-list is sorted. This would be a
nice enhancement to these core Elisp functions.
