Examples

USER 6 > (trace macroexpand-1)

MACROEXPAND-1

USER 7 > (setq *trace-print-pretty* t                   

            *print-pretty* nil)

NIL

USER 8 > (defmacro sum (n)

            '(do ((i 0 (1+ i))

                  (res 0 (+ i res)))

                 ((= i ,n) res)))

SUM

USER 9 > (macroexpand-1 '(sum 3))

0 MACROEXPAND-1 > ((SUM 3))

0 MACROEXPAND-1 < ((DO ((I 0 (1+ I))

                     (RES 0 (+ I RES)))

                    ((= I 3)

                    RES))                   

                  T)
