Hi,
Maxim Cournoyer <maxim.cournoyer@gmail.com> skribis:

In hindsight, I find this syntax quite inelegant and suboptimal.
Wouldn’t it be nicer to write:
(define-configuration foo
(bar (integer 123) "doc" no-serializer)
(baz (string "") "doc"))
where ‘bar’ wouldn’t have a serializer and ‘baz’ would?
It’s also probably easier to implement correctly.
