[Sbcl-devel] unpretty FORMAT ~E printing

[Eric M. <eri...@fr...>]

Hi,

,----
| * (lisp-implementation-version)
| "1.0.50.54-5abf3b4"
| * (FORMAT NIL "~E" 1.0)
| "1.e+0"
| * (FORMAT NIL "~E" 1.0d0)
| "1.d+0"
`----

My reading of CLHS ("If all of w, d, and e are omitted, then the effect
is to print the value using ordinary free-format exponential-notation
output") suggests that those should be "1.0e+0" and "1.0d+0".
