Subject: A question about macro bindings in cl-lib
Date: Wed, 24 Apr 2013 16:17:42 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAAF+z6GqtdJhpgXrHT4rTRtUo+wmscufzbA6UyV37RQCDKTY4Q@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

In (info "(cl) Macro Bindings"):

  (cl-defmacro my-dolist ((x list) &rest body)
    (let ((var (cl-gensym)))
      (list 'cl-loop 'for var 'on list 'do
            (cl-list* 'cl-symbol-macrolet
                      (list (list x (list 'car var)))
                      body))))
  (setq mylist '(1 2 3 4))
  (my-dolist (x mylist) (cl-incf x))
  mylist
       => (2 3 4 5)

  The `my-dolist' call shown here expands to

  (cl-loop for G1234 on mylist do
        (cl-symbol-macrolet ((x (car G1234)))
          (cl-incf x)))

I understand what this macro does, but what does "G1234" mean here?  (I
have searched the archives, but "No document matching your query".)
