5.1 Public Interface


5.1.1 Macros

Macro: do-tokens ((token (source &rest args &key &allow-other-keys) &optional return) &body body)

Iterate over the tokens of SOURCE, using shell-like rules.

Package

shlex.

Source

shlex.lisp.


5.1.2 Ordinary functions

Function: quote (s)

Return a shell-escaped version of string S.

Package

shlex.

Source

shlex.lisp.

Function: split (source &rest args &key &allow-other-keys)

Split SOURCE, a string or stream, into tokens using shell-like rules.

Pass ‘:posix‘ (true by default) to obey POSIX parsing rules.

Pass ‘:punctuation-chars‘ (nil by default) if you want runs of punctuation characters (semicolons, greater and less than signs, ampersands, etc.) to be parsed as separate tokens.

Package

shlex.

shlex.lisp.


5.1.3 Generic functions

Generic Function: map-tokens (fn source &key comments posix debug-input punctuation-chars whitespace-split &allow-other-keys)

Map FN over the tokens of SOURCE, a string or stream, using shell-like rules. See the documentation of ‘split’ for a discussion of possible options.

Package

shlex.
