I hope this is resolved soon, as this is a day with increased traffic because of the release.

Lutz, in the release notes, can you continue putting the revision number where an item was added to the document? I can't tell which bugs were fixed in 10.2.8 compared to 10.2.7. If it is a lot of extra work for you, then never mind. It was appreciated that you did it in the past.

Just use the newlisp-x.x.x/doc/CHANGES notes. Often they contain more detailed, developer-oriented information.

Always, thank you for the great work, Lutz.

I start to translate Function Reference of this version into Japanese.

And I found some mistakes.


net-sessions

There is a display twice.


Error codes

<table summary="tcp/ip error codes">
<tr align="left"><th>description</th><th>no</th></tr>
<tr><td>not enough memory</td><td>1</td></tr>

<table summary="Error codes">
<tr align="left"><th>description</th><th>no</th></tr>
<tr><td>not enough memory</td><td>1</td></tr>


P.S.
net-packet

The following UDP header has a length of 8 bytes and is followed bye the data string Hello World.

I might have found some mistakes.

The initialization file init.lsp

On Win32 the is directory name is contained in the <tt>USERPROFILE</tt> or
On Win32 the directory name is contained in the <tt>USERPROFILE</tt> or


and

(and) → nil
(and) → true


or

(or '()) → nil
(or '()) → ()


(and) returned nil before V10.1 ?
I might have overlooked the specification change.

Thanks Johu. The documentation has been corrected and is online as rev-7.

The changes for the 'and' and 'or' functions were made to be closer to the RSR5 Scheme and Common LISP standards, but were forgotten in the documentation and now corrected.
