Lutz, in the release notes, can you continue putting the revision number where an item was added to the document?    I can't tell which bugs were fixed in 10.2.8 compared to 10.2.7.  If it is a lot of extra work for you, then never mind.  It was appreciated that you did it in the past.

[Lutz]

Just use the newlisp-x.x.x/doc/CHANGES notes. Often they contain more detailed, developer-oriented information.

Always, thank you for the great work, Lutz.



I start to translate Function Reference of this version into Japanese.

I might have found some mistakes.



The initialization file init.lsp



On Win32 the is directory name is contained in the <tt>USERPROFILE</tt> or

and

or

(and) returned nil before V10.1 ?

I might have overlooked the specification change.

[Lutz]

Thanks Johu. The documentation has been corrected and is online as rev-7.



The changes for the 'and' and 'or' functions were made to be closer to the RSR5 Scheme and Common LISP standards, but were forgotten in the documentation and now corrected.

[johu]

Thank you, Lutz.



I updated the Japanese translation into rev 8.
