I'm somehow reluctant to add the "...*" accessor variant - I fear that this adds a lot of redundant bindings that are never used in most cases. By prefixing a slot type with "___pointer" one always has the option to treat a char* as a pointer object instead of a c-string. If you can live with that, I can tag a new version of the bind egg. Otherwise we should discuss this some more. I don't recall the whole discussion so it is possible that I have overlooked something important. cheers, felix _______________________________________________ Chicken-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-users
