I had this piece of data
(("12345" (("Content-Disposition" "form-data" (("name" . "code"))))))
and I wanted to extract the cons with “name” and “code”. Armed with my ‘a’s and ‘d’s I wrote (interactively, one letter at a time)
(caaddr (caadar thing))
then I though “two function call is too much”
(caaddaadar thing)
but ‘caaddaadar’ doesn’t exists.
Life sucks even more now.

P.S.: yeah, I was trying to extract data from the output of rfc2388:parse-mime.
P.P.S.: yeah, I was trying to extract the wrong thing: “code” is the input name and “12345” is the value.
P.P.P.S.: yup, eventually I replaced that with trivia (pattern matching.)
