Should there be some image other than a white rectangle in this documentation, or does "Figure 8.1" simply mean "the next paragraph"? http://www.lispworks.com/documentation/lw51/LWUG/html/lwuser-76.htm I can file a bug report if it's not as it should be. //JT tayloj@cs.rpi.edu

The PDF version of the User Guide has the figure.
As an aside, why it's a screenshot of a window is beyond me. I'd
think some kind of text outline
- kind
- of
- like
- this
would be better.

I also agree on that it would be better as a text list. //JT

Of course we should have generated an indented text list instead - smaller, text-searchable and harder to lose :) -- Dave Fox LispWorks Ltd St John's Innovation Centre, Cowley Road Cambridge CB4 0WS England http://www.lispworks.com/ LispWorks Ltd is registered in England, company number 5114963.
