Masterscope creates bogus templates behind user's back for Common Lisp macros #1860

Open hjellinek opened 4 weeks ago

hjellinek commented 4 weeks ago

I performed various Masterscope commands related to Common Lisp macros, two of mine and another that is part of Medley:

_ . show paths to with-htmldata
_ . show paths to CHECK-OPEN
_ . show paths to \IPC

Later I called

_ (FILES?)

and the file package told me that there had been changes made to the masterscope templates: \IPC, with-htmldata, CHECK-OPEN, and would I like to say where those go?

@masinter says "This is a bug; I suspect I introduced it in 2020. The Masterscope template code is pretty confusing. .... should make an issue with the problem. 'Common Lisp macros cause bogus Masterscope templates'"
