zl:getchar 254
zl:getchar string index Function
Returns the indexth character of string as a symbol. Note that i-origin indexing
is used. This function is mainly for Maclisp compatibility; aref
should be used to index into strings (however, aref does not coerce symbols
into strings).
Examples:
(21 :getchar "string" 1) => lsi
(21 :getchar 'symbol 2) => Y
(21 :getchar "STRING" 1) => S
(zl :getchar "ORANGE" 0) => NIL
;1-origin indexing is used

Functions" in Symbolics Common Lisp: Language Concepts.
zl:getcharn string index Function
Returns the indexth character of string as a character. Note that i-origin
indexing is used. This function is mainly for Maclisp compatibility; aref
should be used to index into strings (however, aref does not coerce symbols
or numbers into strings).
Examples:
(21 :getcharn "string" 1) => #\s
(zl :getcharn 'symbol 2) => #\Y
(21 :getcharn "STRING" 1) => #\S
(21 :getcharn "ORANGE" 0) => 0 ;1-origin indexing is used

Functions" in Symbolics Common Lisp: Language Concepts.
getf plist indicator &optional default
Function
Searches the property list plist for indicator. If indicator is found, the corresponding
value is returned. If getf cannot find indicator, default is
returned. If default is not specified, nil is used. Note that there is no way
to distinguish between a property whose value is default and a missing
property. See the section "Functions Relating to the Property List of a
Symbol" in Symbolics Common Lisp: Language Concepts.

zl:get-flavor-handler-for flavor-name operation Function
Given a flavor-name and an operation (a function spec that names a generic
function or a message), zl:get-flavor-handler-for returns the flavor's
method for the operation or nil if it has none.
For example:
