Hi,
To my surprise,
(prin1-to-string '(foo "bar") t)
evaluates as "(foo bar)". This seems like a bug to me, since it doesn't
conform to the doc (it's not the printed representation of the OBJECT any more).
I want to use the NOESCAPE option to obtain instead of:
(prin1-to-string '(foo.bar)) => "(foo\\.bar)"
this output:
(prin1-to-string '(foo.bar) t) => "(foo.bar)"
But the downside is that the strings are unquoted as well:
(prin1-to-string '(foo "bar") t) => "(foo bar)"
Please let me know if it's a bug or not, and maybe suggest how I can
obtain the behavior of (prin1-to-string x t) without unquoting the strings in x.
regards,
Oleh
