car and cdr

Command with more than 3 'd' or 'a' subcommand not work.

=>(cdddr '(1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13)) (4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13)

=>(cddddr '(1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13)) ERROR: unbound variable (errobj cddddr)

It is not clear from your message if you are reporting a widely known fact, or trying to report a bug. To report bugs, go to http://bugzilla.gnome.org/ so the bugs can be tracked.

But since the topic is Lisp, I will jump in.

In either case, all shorthand forms of car and cdr are convenience functions for which you can extend all that you want. Generally the predefined ones do indeed stop at about 3.
