 If PROMPTER is a string, the prompt is \(format PROMPTER OBJECT\).  If not
 a string, PROMPTER is a function of one arg (an object from LIST), which
 returns a string to be used as the prompt for that object.  If the return
-value is not a string, it is eval'd to get the answer; it may be nil to
-ignore the object, t to act on the object without asking the user, or a
-form to do a more complex prompt.
+value is not a string, it may be nil to ignore the object or non-nil to act

 ACTOR is a function of one arg (an object from LIST),
 which gets called with each object that the user answers `yes' for.
