I tried to do this, and it isn't hard to do this by formulating each clause to use :match. However, to make the simplest possible result, I need to know all the kinds of values that RES can have. For instance, at this point, (`(,hookfun . ,_) ;; The hook function already performed completion :-( ;; Not much we can do at this point. (message "%s already performed completion!" hookfun) nil) what are the possible values of RES that will NOT match that pattern? -- Dr Richard Stallman (https://stallman.org) Chief GNUisance of the GNU Project (https://gnu.org) Founder, Free Software Foundation (https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org)
