I'd guess that 'x' is the most appropriate template char. Extracted from `interactive's docstring: x -- Lisp expression read but not evaluated. Or you don't provide a string description to `interactive'. Then you have full control over the user input (for example, if you have a more concrete idea about how your list's members should look like: you didn't say anything about that part :-) Cheers - t --i0/AhcQY5QxfSsSZ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAl/cl5EACgkQBcgs9XrR2kY8kgCffR2sG9D85t5lpn0JFkZJBFmJ xHAAn3yfhs7mtzg9rlpnYoJ6Cm1XgTFv =udFL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --i0/AhcQY5QxfSsSZ--
