hi Group,
<br />
<br />I executed these commands..
<br />
<br />$ guile
<br />guile&gt; (define mc (cons &#39;a &#39;b))
<br />guile&gt; mc
<br />(a . b)
<br />guile&gt; (define ml (list 1 2 mc))
<br />guile&gt; ml
<br />(1 2 (a . b))
<br />guile&gt; (list mc 1 2 3)
<br />((a . b) 1 2 3)
<br />guile&gt; (define mh (make-hash-table 2))
<br />guile&gt; (hashq-create-handle! mh &#39;one mc)
<br />(one a . b)
<br />guile&gt; (hashq-create-handle! mh &#39;two ml)
<br />(two 1 2 (a . b))
<br />guile&gt; mh
<br />#(((two 1 2 (a . b)) (one a . b)) ())
<br />guile&gt; (use-modules (ice-9 pretty-print))
<br />guile&gt; (pretty-print mh)
<br />#(((two 1 2 (a . b)) (one a . b)) ())
<br />guile&gt;
<br />
<br />I was expecting handle:&#39;one of hash:mh to be printed in parens as
<br />#(((two 1 2 (a . b)) (one (a . b))) ())
<br />
<br />Why is behaviour of print for a hash different from others?
<br />Am I missing anything?
<br />
<br />--regards, Praveen
