I'm aware of it, thanks. I'm afraid I'm quite attached to my own LET
macro, of which I wrote the first version in Zetalisp in 1980. -- I
wish I had made more noise about it at the time. The multiple value
binding syntax, at least, could have become part of CL:
(let ((val1 val2 val3 (form))) ...)
BIND's considerably greater functionality is bought at the price of
greater verbosity in the multiple-value case, which for me is by far
the most common.
