I was referring to a user-level Maxima identifier and not to lisp code. To
use
a hyphen as a word separator in Maxima, one must escape it
(C4) the\-extrapolated\-length : 28 * cm;
(D4) 28 cm
(C5) the\-extrapolated\-length;
(D5) 28 cm
(C6)
I agree, Common Lisp code written for Maxima should follow the idioms of
CL.
