Subject: Shouldn't records be sequences?
Date: Sun, 12 Apr 2020 11:35:34 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <871rotdp21.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)


Records currently seem a bit weird: `aref', `cl-loop''s "across" clause
(which uses `aref'), `copy-sequence' support them; `substring' (which
does support vectors) and other sequence functions do not.

Shouldn't records become subtype of sequence and get better support from
related functionality?

(bug#40562 got me thinking about this)
