Caron) The question is: why does &AUX even exist? is this another throwback to Mac/Inter/Zeta-Lisp? (I'm sure that Scheme wouldn't be caught dead with the extra verbiage). As far as I can tell, the only place you may need them is with BOA-constructors. Anyone else? ---- Brad Miller U. Rochester Comp Sci Dept. miller@cs.rochester.edu {...allegra!rochester!miller}
