~~Quote from: "Lutz"~~Symbol protection for containers of mutable FOOP objects

Not sure what you mean here, Lutz. Can you elaborate?

Thanks for another release!

Code Select Expand
(new Class 'Circle)

(constant 'c (Circle 3 4 10))

(define (Circle:move dx dy)
	(inc (self 1) dx)
	(inc (self 2) dy))

(:move c 8 9) => now throws protection error

On versions previous to 10.1.12 this would modify the circle in 'c', although 'c' is defined as constant.

A few newLISP manual issues:

======================

Function Reference

1. Syntax of symbol variables and numbers

2. Data types and names in the reference

3. Functions in groups

* List processing, flow control, and integer arithmetic

Function table list is missing ++ and -- integer arithmetic entries.

======================

eval

...See the chapter Programming with context objects...

Broken link.

======================

preview

See also name to extract the name part of a symbol.

Should reflect name change to term...

======================

term

If the expression in bool evaluates to anything other than nil, the name of the symbol's context is returned instead.

References removed bool flag option???

When context is supplied, then name returns the name of the context.

Should reflect name change to term.
