[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Like the fellow code:

  (= 1 1 t) ; error
  (= 1 2 t) ; nil

t is a symbol, (= 1 1 t) signal a error, that is what we expect. 
But in the second form there is no error, because  "=" get the
result before to eval the third argument "t". 
So "=" not to eval all arguments, that is  a "sepecial form" activation.

Why do you think `=' is a special form?
