Re: reader extension

Well, there is a partial implementation of the Common Lisp readtable
API.  It's not tested or documented, but it should be a good starting
point.  You need to (require 'readtable) to load the functions; the
source is in gnu/kawa/slib/readtable.scm.  If you would fill in the
missing pieces and debug it, that would be great.  (I notice a call to
'value' which should be a call to 'values'.).  A little bit of
documentation for the manual would be nice too.

The Common Lisp API is documented in the HyperSpec at
