Subject: nested backquotes
Date: Wed, 18 May 2005 17:13:18 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <vpqr7g4bm9d.fsf@ecrins.imag.fr> (raw)
Hi,
I'm experiencing problems with nested backquotes in Emacs lisp:
Emacs 21 says:
ELISP> ``( ,,(+ 1 2))
(cons
(+ 1 2))
Whereas XEmacs says:
ELISP> ``( ,,(+ 1 2))
(list 3)
Question 1: Who is right? (I'd say XEmacs here. I don't understand
Emacs's behavior)
Question 2: Is there a portable way to use nested backquotes in Emacs
Lisp?
Thanks,
--
Matthieu
