Love the docstring BTW: [I fixed the align for the purpose of this message] [...] For example: b => (ba bb bc) ; assume b has this value `(a b c) => (a b c) ; backquote acts like quote `(a ,b c) => (a (ba bb bc) c) ; insert the value of b `(a ,@b c) => (a ba bb bc c) ; splice in the value of b "For example" - isn't that exactly, and all, it does? OK, well, ,b can be _evaluated_ as well, not just inserted as a value, I guess, that's what they mean? `(1 2 ,(format "%s %s!" "Sail" "Ho") 4) => (1 2 "Sail Ho!" 4) -- underground experts united https://dataswamp.org/~incal
