What is the best way to implement a goto-column function in mlisp?
Don't forget to take into account tabs and control characters.
I would prefer to have this function go to the smallest column >= the
desired column and issue an error if column > EOL-column. Also, best
will be judged as most efficient for column ~= 80.
Send replies to me, and I will post the best answer (and runners up).
