Description

The generic function stream-write-sequence is used by write-sequence to write a subsequence of sequence delimited by start and end to stream.

A default method is provided by fundamental-character-output-stream that tests each element of sequence in turn, and then uses stream-write-char or produces an error. A default method is provided by fundamental-binary-output-stream that tests each element of sequence in turn, and then uses stream-write-byte or produces an error.
