Ok then, how about adding a note in string-replace! section,
something like this?
Note: Srfi-13 has a nondestructive version, string-replace, which
takes the arguments in the following order:
(string-replace dst src dst-start dst-end [src-start [src-end]])
We adopt a different argument order here to be consistent to
string-copy!, and existing string-replace! implementations.
Sounds reasonable. See attached diff. Anything else before we declare it final? -- --Per Bothner per@xxxxxxxxxxx http://per.bothner.com/
