Hi all,
Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?
? (read-from-string "fred" :start 3)
FRED
4
I believe this should return:
D
4
This is defined Common Lisp behavior.
You have to supply the two optional args to read-from-string in order to
then start supplying the keyword args.
e.g.:
(read-from-string "fred" nil :EOF :start 3)
==> D
4
