(rplaca CELL NEWCAR) Set the car of CELL to be NEWCAR. Returns NEWCAR. If I recall right, rplaca traditionally returned CELL, not NEWCAR. Thus, this change seems like an error. -- Dr Richard Stallman President, Free Software Foundation 51 Franklin St Boston MA 02110 USA www.fsf.org www.gnu.org Skype: No way!
