Hello,
To understand how ` works, I read lisp/emacs-lisp/backquote.el.
And I found:
;; When the Lisp reader sees `(...), it generates (\` (...)).
;; When it sees ,... inside such a backquote form, it generates (\,
...).
;; For ,@... it generates (\,@ ...).
Do all Lisp readers have this feature? And is behavior of backquote
in GNU Emacs simillar to other Lisp implementations, especially for
nested backquotes?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Guanpeng Xu
