| Allegro CL version 8.2 Unrevised from 8.1 to 8.2. 8.1 version |
Arguments: window-or-widget
Deletes an object from the specified window or widget if possible. Does not place anything onto the clipboard as copy-command and cut-command do.
window-or-widget should an instance of the
basic-pane
, dialog-item
, or screen
class or one of their
subclasses.
This function behaves as copy-command does to pass its action to a child window, except that it calls delete-selection rather than copy-selection on the child window. See copy-command for more information.
Here is the default method for windows and the screen:
(defmethod delete-command ((stream screen-stream)) (let* ((child (selected-window stream))) (if* child then (delete-command child) else (delete-selection stream))))
In earlier releases, use of this operator was deprecated. It has now been restored to approved status.
