Subject: when should a variable to quoted?
Date: Sat, 13 Sep 2008 02:11:44 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5bdb1b73-bf04-49a3-8629-61d32ef6f899@p31g2000prf.googlegroups.com> (raw)

(add-to-list 'll "a")
(delete-dups ll)

The variable "ll" needs be quoted in add-to-list, while not quoted in
delete-dups, why? any special reasons?
