	I would like to be able to pretty print an sexp into a
	string, as opposed to into a stream. How can I do this
	(on a TI Explorer)? Simply giving NIL as the stream to
	pprint does not work.
	
		Thanks for any suggestions,
			Mark


Please let me know when you get it done.
I've wanted to know how to do the same thing.

OOPS!  Hold the presses! I just got an idea!

Yep, see pg. 5-8 of Lisp I/O Reference on write-to-string
specifically:
(write-to-string sexpr :pretty t)
Does just what you want it to.
