Subject: Macro vs Function
Date: Wed, 12 Apr 2006 16:22:20 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <BAY112-F122B568B30E20166055721DAC20@phx.gbl> (raw)

Hello,

After reading defmacro and eval in eval.c, I conclude that, in
Emacs Lisp, if I substitute "defmacro" at the beginning of
definition of a macro with "defun" and quote each argument in the
call the behavior of code will not be altered.  Is this correct?
And, is it correct for other Lisp implementations?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Guanpeng Xu
