I have this suspicion that if this is done right (with hooks in suitable places and well defined semantics) then it might make it a lot easier to try out various approaches. However, without more investigation, it's possible that I'm just falling victim to wishful thinking. -- Rob Browning rlb @defaultvalue.org, @linuxdevel.com, and @debian.org Previously @cs.utexas.edu GPG=1C58 8B2C FB5E 3F64 EA5C 64AE 78FE E5FE F0CB A0AD _______________________________________________ Guile-devel mailing list Guile-devel@gnu.org http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/guile-devel
