Analogously, SB-EXT:PARSE-NATIVE-NAMESTRING takes an AS-DIRECTORY, forcing a filename to parse into a directory pathname. - * optimizations: COPY-SEQ, FILL, and SUBSEQ are 30-80% faster for + * enhancement: RUN-PROGRAM allows unicode arguments and environments + to be used (using the default stream external format), and allows + non-simple strings to be used.
