Elisp syntax is probably not a good example, since elisp code wouldn't start with "define-module". Minor variants of syntax overall don't sound like a great idea to me, I would hope #,() and the guile #[whatever] is probably enough. For radically different syntax, a module could read and eval (or whatever) from `current-load-port' could it? _______________________________________________ Guile-devel mailing list Guile-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/guile-devel
