In the `family.l` example it seems to store the "current person" object in the `val` of *DB. Is this just for convenience for the sample? Or is this different since the global symbol isn't a reference to the object itself? I assume the correct pattern for an action form is to use some global to hold a reference to some indexable ID for the DB object we are interested in? -grant shoshin -- UNSUBSCRIBE: mailto:picolisp@software-lab.de?subject=Unsubscribe
