Is there a function to create a text node? something like createTextNode() in js?

No, but easy enough to add. Can you give me an example of how you would use?

I want to add text inside div, but I don't want to replace the entire contents of the div node. I don't want add a div as a child with text in it either. I only want add a text node as child to the parent div node. How do I do that?

[rabbibotton]

with what I just added: (place-text-inside-bottom-of obj "text to add")

Look forward to seeing the cool things you make with CLOG :)

BTW, if you just want to replace a text node / add a text node in its entirety the "text" property (setf (text obj) "abc") does that.

I am looking in to appending or prepending text as that is the only thing comes to mind offhand.

[rabbibotton]

Ok, I added place-text-inside-bottom-of and place-text-inside-top-of - that is append text node, prepend text node and 'text' will replace all text nodes with a new text node

This works! Thank you for the quick response. Great work, by the way. I'm inspired.
