Package:LISP
Creates and returns a new uninterned symbol whose name is a prefix string (defaults to "G"), followed by a decimal number. The number is incremented by each call to GENSYM. X, if an integer, resets the counter. If X is a string, it becomes the new prefix.
Package:LISP
Returns T if X is a symbol and it belongs to the KEYWORD package; NIL otherwise.
Package:LISP
Look on property list of SYMBOL for property with specified INDICATOR. If found, splice this indicator and its value out of the plist, and return T. If not found, returns NIL with no side effects.
Package:LISP
Returns the contents of the package cell of the symbol SYMBOL.
Package:LISP The current package.
Package:LISP
Imports SYMBOLS into PACKAGE, disregarding any name conflict. If a symbol of the same name is already present, then it is uninterned. SYMBOLS must be a list of symbols or a symbol.
Package:LISP
Syntax:
(remf place indicator)
PLACE may be any place expression acceptable to SETF, and is expected to hold a property list or NIL. This list is destructively altered to remove the property specified by INDICATOR. Returns T if such a property was present; NIL otherwise.
Package:LISP
Makes empty the value slot of SYMBOL. Returns SYMBOL.
Package:LISP
Adds all packages in PACKAGE-TO-USE list to the use list for PACKAGE so that the external symbols of the used packages are available as internal symbols in PACKAGE.
Package:LISP
Creates and returns a new uninterned symbol whose print name is STRING.
Package:LISP
Syntax:
(psetq {var form}*)
Similar to SETQ, but evaluates all FORMs first, and then assigns each value to the corresponding VAR. Returns NIL always.
Package:LISP
Returns the list of packages that use PACKAGE.
Package:LISP
Returns T if X is a symbol; NIL otherwise.
Package:LISP Holds NIL.
Package:LISP
Assigns the value of VALUE to the dynamic variable named by SYMBOL, and returns the value assigned.
Package:LISP
Syntax:
(setq {var form}*)
VARs are not evaluated and must be symbols. Assigns the value of the first FORM to the first VAR, then assigns the value of the second FORM to the second VAR, and so on. Returns the last value assigned.
Package:LISP
Removes PACKAGES-TO-UNUSE from the use list for PACKAGE.
Package:LISP Holds T.
Package:LISP
Returns the list of packages used by PACKAGE.
Package:LISP
Returns a list of all existing packages.
Package:LISP
Returns a new uninterned symbol with the same print name as SYMBOL. If COPY-PROPS is NIL, the function, the variable, and the property slots of the new symbol have no value. Otherwise, these slots are given the values of the corresponding slots of SYMBOL.
Package:LISP
Returns the property list of SYMBOL.
Package:LISP
Returns the print name of the symbol SYMBOL.
Package:LISP
Returns the symbol named NAME in PACKAGE. If such a symbol is found, then the second value is :INTERN, :EXTERNAL, or :INHERITED to indicate how the symbol is accessible. If no symbol is found then both values are NIL.
Package:LISP
Creates an internal symbol in PACKAGE with the same name as each of the specified SYMBOLS. SYMBOLS must be a list of symbols or a symbol.
Package:LISP
Returns T if SYMBOL has a global function definition or if SYMBOL names a special form or a macro; NIL otherwise.
Package:LISP
If SYMBOL globally names a macro, then returns the expansion function. Returns NIL otherwise.
Package:LISP
Sets *PACKAGE* to the package with PACKAGE-NAME, creating the package if it does not exist. If the package already exists then it is modified to agree with USE and NICKNAMES arguments. Any new nicknames are added without removing any old ones not specified. If any package in the USE list is not currently used, then it is added to the use list.
Package:LISP
Makes a new package having the specified PACKAGE-NAME and NICKNAMES. The package will inherit all external symbols from each package in the USE list.
Package:LISP
Returns the list of symbols that have been declared as shadowing symbols in PACKAGE.
Package:LISP
Returns a symbol having the specified name, creating it if necessary. Returns as the second value one of the symbols :INTERNAL, :EXTERNAL, :INHERITED, and NIL.
Package:LISP
Makes SYMBOLS external symbols of PACKAGE. SYMBOLS must be a list of symbols or a symbol.
Package:LISP
Returns T if X is a package; NIL otherwise.
Package:LISP
Returns the current global function definition named by SYMBOL.
Package:LISP
Returns the current value of the dynamic (special) variable named by SYMBOL.
Package:LISP
Returns T if the global variable named by SYMBOL has a value; NIL otherwise.
Package:LISP
Returns the doc-string of DOC-TYPE for SYMBOL; NIL if none exists. Possible doc-types are: FUNCTION (special forms, macros, and functions) VARIABLE (dynamic variables, including constants) TYPE (types defined by DEFTYPE) STRUCTURE (structures defined by DEFSTRUCT) SETF (SETF methods defined by DEFSETF, DEFINE-SETF-METHOD, and DEFINE-MODIFY-MACRO) All built-in special forms, macros, functions, and variables have their doc-strings.
Package:LISP
Creates a new symbol interned in the package PACKAGE with the given PREFIX.
Package:LISP
Replaces the old name and nicknames of PACKAGE with NEW-NAME and NEW-NICKNAMES.
Package:LISP
Makes SYMBOL no longer present in PACKAGE. Returns T if SYMBOL was present; NIL otherwise. If PACKAGE is the home package of SYMBOL, then makes SYMBOL uninterned.
Package:LISP
Makes SYMBOLS no longer accessible as external symbols in PACKAGE. SYMBOLS must be a list of symbols or a symbol.
Package:LISP
Returns as a list the nickname strings for the specified PACKAGE.
Package:LISP
Makes SYMBOLS internal symbols of PACKAGE. SYMBOLS must be a list of symbols or a symbol.
Package:LISP
Looks on the property list of SYMBOL for the specified INDICATOR. If this is found, returns the associated value. Otherwise, returns DEFAULT.
Package:LISP
Returns a list of all symbols that have the specified name.
Package:LISP
Discards the global function definition named by SYMBOL. Returns SYMBOL.
Package:LISP
Returns the string that names the specified PACKAGE.
Package:LISP
Returns the specified package if it already exists; NIL otherwise. NAME may be a string that is the name or nickname of the package. NAME may also be a symbol, in which case the symbol’s print name is used.
Package:LISP
Returns, as a list, all symbols whose print-names contain STRING as substring. If PACKAGE is non-NIL, then only the specified package is searched.
