| Allegro CL version 6.2 Unrevised from 6.1 |
Arguments: symbol-string &optional default-package
Parses the colon (or pair of colons) in a string to return two values:
a symbol-name string and a package. If the substring before the
colon(s) is not the name or nickname of a package, then nil
is returned as the second value rather than a
package.
For example:
> (symbol-string-and-package-from-string "cg::dummy") "dummy" #<The COMMON-GRAPHICS package>
