| Allegro CL version 8.2 Unrevised from 8.1 to 8.2. 8.1 version |
Arguments: object &optional package
Returns a lisp form derived from an arbitrary object. When a command
that acts on a lisp form (such as macroexpand) is invoked in the
Allegro development environment, the default selected-form method
finds a lisp form to apply the command to by calling object-form on
the selected-object of the selected window. Object-form may return
nil
if a lisp form cannot be derived in some
reasonable way from the object. Object-form is bypassed if there is a
more specific selected-form method for a particular command and
selected window; these more specific methods sometimes exist when it
is not sufficient to funnel through the general selected-object in
order to derive a selected-form for the window.
