"Returns the current horizontal position of the cursor..."
The word "cursor" is unfortunately overused and not defined here or elsewhere in
CLtL.
What is
(with-output-to-string (x ) (princ "a test") (output-position x))?
Is it implementation dependent?
What is (output-position *terminal-io*)? What is the relation between
(output-position (make-broadcast-stream a b)) and (output-position a) and
(output-position b)?
I'm sure I can think of more questions given time...
