I thought about that for my lint program and decided it'd be too annoying to report local bindings that shadow, but I did set up for top-level shadows of core or imported stuff to be warned. An example annoyance for me would be "symbol" which is an undocumented core binding but I regularly use as the name of a local variable. (A variable which, not surprisingly, contains a symbol :). _______________________________________________ Guile-user mailing list Guile-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/guile-user
