Hi Kevin,

        (readline "foo: ")

This gives an error.

(read-line (current-input-port) 'trim "foo: ")

does not give an error, but "foo: " is ignored. The first two arguments are the port to read from and the handle-delim value. Any further arguments seem to be completely ignored. Sorry.


Not sure if that's meant to be documented, seems like a pretty
sensible usage, even if reading current-input-port might be usual.

It would be nice if that were it, I agree.

Thanks,
Jon
