ISTR that there is a frequently used term for an object whose value will be computed only when you actually refer to it, but it has been so many years that I don't remember the term. Is it "lazy"? Maybe this type should be called `lazy'. `delayed' is ok too. --=-=-= Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel --=-=-=--
