I proposed to prefix the function names with 'clo' on the understanding that the names it defines are inspired by Clojure. I said this would result in names such as 'clostring-prepend', because a message I had read had led me to think that they started with 'string-'. But maybe I was misled by what I had read. Do they actually start with 's-'? If so, I still propose the same compromise, prefixing with 'clo', but it would result in names starting with 'clos-'. Would you like to send me the API documentation of s.el? -- Dr Richard Stallman Chief GNUisance of the GNU Project (https://gnu.org) Founder, Free Software Foundation (https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org)
