I should probably have added these functions to subr.el or subr-x.el and sent a patch with the documentation updated. I didn't stress enough that I wanted to add documented standard functions to Emacs. But as Stefan suggested, I'm rewriting it with "seq-" as a prefix. It makes sense for several reasons. Also, I compared it with the new string-manipulation functions in subr-x.el, and they all use "string-" as a prefix. Nico -- Nicolas Petton http://nicolas-petton.fr
