print-radix

Generic Function

Package: common-graphics

Arguments: configuration

Configurations contain information about the Lisp environment. The current configuration is the value of (configuration *system*). Among the information stored is the desired value for many standard global variables. These globals are set to these values when the system is initialized. Changing a value in the configuration changes the current value of the global. Accessors are typically named with a symbol named the same as the global variable but without the surrounding stars (if any).

This function accesses the value of the print-radix property, which corresponds to the *print-radix* global variable. This global variable controls whether a radix marker is printed when an integer is printed. (The radix marker for base 10 is a trailing period. There are various markers for other bases.)

print-radix is a property of the configuration class.

You can examine and change configuration options with the inspector. Choose Tools | Inspect System Data | Configuration Options.
