Talking about this, I remember there was a discussion, I think it was with Pascal Bourguignon, on this list, and he made the case the more general `setf' should be prefered to `setq'. But I don't remember the case he made. Something with quoting, or not quoting, variables (') and functions (#')? I don't know if he reads this list anymore; I found his web page [1] but no e-mail, so I can't CC him. [1] http://www.informatimago.com -- underground experts united http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573
