(set-macro-character char function &optional (non-terminatingp nil) (rt-designator readtable))	Function: Causes CHAR to be a macro character which invokes FUNCTION when seen by the reader. The NON-TERMINATINGP flag can be used to make the macro character non-terminating, i.e. embeddable in a symbol name.

(get-macro-character char &optional (rt-designator readtable))	Function: Return the function associated with the specified CHAR which is a macro character, or NIL if there is no such function. As a second value, return T if CHAR is a macro character which is non-terminating, i.e. which can be embedded in a symbol name.

fundamental-character-stream	Type: a superclass of all Gray streams whose element-type is a subtype of character


babel-encodings:character-encoding	Undocumented


(get-dispatch-macro-character disp-char sub-char &optional (rt-designator readtable))	Function: Return the macro character function for SUB-CHAR under DISP-CHAR or NIL if there is no associated function.

(set-dispatch-macro-character disp-char sub-char function &optional (rt-designator readtable))	Function: Cause FUNCTION to be called whenever the reader reads DISP-CHAR followed by SUB-CHAR.

(make-dispatch-macro-character char &optional (non-terminating-p nil) (rt readtable))	Function: Cause CHAR to become a dispatching macro character in readtable (which defaults to the current readtable). If NON-TERMINATING-P, the char will be non-terminating.

fundamental-character-input-stream	Type: a superclass of all Gray input streams whose element-type is a subtype of character


fundamental-character-output-stream	Type: a superclass of all Gray output streams whose element-type is a subtype of character


(chunga:with-character-stream-semantics &body body)	Function: Binds CHAR-BUFFER around BODY so that within BODY we can use READ-CHAR* and friends (see above) to simulate a character stream although we're reading from a binary stream.


babel-encodings:character-coding-error	Undocumented


(babel-encodings:get-character-encoding name)	Function: Lookups the character encoding denoted by the keyword symbol NAME. Signals an error if one is not found. If NAME is already a CHARACTER-ENCONDING object, it is returned unmodified.


(babel-encodings:list-character-encodings)	Function: List of keyword symbols denoting supported character encodings. This list does not include aliases.

babel-encodings:default-character-encoding	Variable: Special variable used to determine the default character encoding.

babel-encodings:suppress-character-coding-errors	Variable: If non-NIL, encoding or decoding errors are suppressed and the the current character encoding's default replacement character is used.
