impliciting indexing doesn't cross list/string boundaries

[TedWalther]

I have this:

(set 'foo '("#foo" "bar" "baz" "some text"))

I expected this to work:

(foo 0 0) => "#"

Instead it returned "#foo".  A bit surprising.  I know that (foo 0) works as a list index; is newlisp supposed to ignore bogus indexes afterward?  Either newlisp should cross the list/string boundary and let the index apply to the string or array equally with the list, or return an error, no?



Using version 10.6.2

This one did work: (first (foo 0))
