[parenscript-devel] Problems with "new"

[Anthony Fairchild]

Hi, I'm new to parenscript but maybe I can answer this one.  I believe the
problem you are having is package related.  'new' is a macro in the
parenscript package, so you need to call it like this:

(parenscript:ps (parenscript:new (date)))

I recommend you use-package parenscript and you wouldn't have this problem:

CL-USER> (use-package :parenscript)
T
CL-USER> (ps (new (date)))
"new date();"

Hope this helps,

Anthony
