Is there any way I can key on the '%' character to use the readtable
to transform
foo%bar
in source into
(get 'foo 'bar)
in data structure?
I'd also like to collapse
foo%bar%<datum>
in source into
(setf (get 'foo 'bar) <datum>)
in data structure.
Just looking for a way to make property-list references more concise.
Am I missing something about the readtable, or do I have to use a
prefix character before 'foo'? ie, as
%foo%bar
and
%foo%bar%<datum>
it looks like there's a straightforward way to do this.
