Subject: read-all ?
Date: Sat, 12 Jan 2013 18:34:27 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87hammwbj0.fsf@pobox.com> (raw)

I find myself writing (read-delimited "" p) to slurp in a file as a
string, but it's not a very straightforward way to say that.

What about `read-all'?  We could add it to `(ice-9 rdelim)', I guess.
R6RS calls this `read-string-all'.

Thoughts?

Andy
