In the manual;
member

syntax: (member exp list)
syntax: (member str str-key [num-option])
Shouldn't this be:
syntax: (member str-key str [num-option])
Because the format is actually;

(member "f" "a b c d e f")

Where "f" is the key to search for and "a b c d e f" is the string.

Or, does str-key mean something different in this case?

write

If int-size is not specified, all data in sym-buffer or str-buffer is written.
If int-size is not specified, all data in str-buffer is written.

or

syntax: (write int-file str-buffer|sym-buffer [int-size])
syntax: (write str str-buffer|sym-buffer [int-size])


write-line

When the string argument is omitted write-line writes the contents of the last read-line to int-file
When the string argument is omitted write-line writes the contents of the last read-line to int-file.


Predefined variables and functions.

Two of them are used as namespace templates, one two write platform independent code.

By the way,
I finished to translate the section of Function Reference in newLISP User Manual into Japanese.

http://cid-23a9a25e1aec3626.skydrive.li ... -10201.zip

This version is v.10.2.1 rev 17.

Thank you very much Johu! You have done a great work with this, and the Japanese translation will help, to make newLISP more popular in Japan.

I would like to put the bilingual Japanese version of the function reference (without the "Users Manual") on the documentation section on newlisp.org. How would you translate the title "newLISP Function Reference" into Japanese?

ps: the corrections will go online later today.

Spelling (again ;p)

Acccesses - Accesses
Addtionally - Additionally
Insteead - Instead

I have posted these words (several times) before (in lowercase), we must of had a case sensitively mismatch ;p)

----------

For each function definition you have: <h2><span class="function">

There are two more places:

<div class="license">
<a name="GNUFDL"></a>
<center>
<h2><span class="function">GNU Free Documentation License</span></h2>

-------------------

<a name="GNUGPL"></a>
<center>
<h2><span class="function">GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE</span></h2>

--------------

Could you change these to:

<h2><span class="any name besides function">GNU...
(Or a shorter, smarter name ;P)

This change would be helpful in parsing the xhtml to be able to extract all "functions" without including what should be "license" sections...

Thanks Lutz.

I think that "newLISP Function Reference" is "newLISP 関数リファレンス" in Japanese.
I thought that the title may be acceptable in English.
Actually, my translation didn't translate the title (i.e. <h1>, <h2> or <h3> tags) or some description of tables.

If necessary, I will translate these.

And I updated the Japanese translation into rev 18.
