Expand..

[derek]

Maybe I'm doing something wrong but I can't get expand to work..

(set 'x 2 'a '(d e)) ; from the examples

(expand '(a x(b c x) 'x 'a))

For me this just returns the first list I typed. But I'm just using this on the console, not in any macros.. is this possible??

Many thanks.

Many thanks - I figured it out shortly after posting. I used the neglook examples and it worked, so I guessed it was my crappy typing..

Newlisp is great - many thanks for this language. I never managed to get quite good enough at lisp and scheme, but with newlisp I should be vaguely useful for something..
