Converting Between Symbols and Strings
Sometimes you might need to convert a symbol to string in Emacs Lisp. You start looking for functions like symbol-to-string and string-to-symbol but, they do not exist.
With Emacs Lisp, you can do it like this.
(symbol-name 'some-symbol)
; ==> "some-symbol"
(intern "some-symbol")
; ==> some-symbol
