Description

The function single-form-with-options-form-parser is a predefined form parser for use with define-form-parser. The parser consumes one subform and returns a dspec made from the defining form and either the first element of the subform if it is a cons or the subform itself otherwise. This can be used in the common case where a defining form has a name with options that follows the defining macro and the dspec class is the same as the defining macro, for example defstruct.

single-form-with-options-form-parser is the predefined parser for defstruct, fli:define-foreign-function, fli:define-foreign-variable, fli:define-c-struct, fli:define-c-union, fli:define-c-enum and fli:define-c-typedef forms.

You can define it to be the parser for your defining forms. using define-form-parser.
