- Description:
-
A readtable maps characters into syntax types for
the Lisp reader; see Chapter 2 Syntax.
A readtable also
contains associations between macro characters
and their reader macro functions,
and records information about the case conversion rules
to be used by the Lisp reader when parsing symbols.
Each simple character must be representable in the readtable.
It is implementation-defined whether non-simple characters
can have syntax descriptions in the readtable.
