Hi everyone. I'm currently writing a set of helper functions (usually
written using `computed-file` which act on file like objects to
transform them in some way.
For instance, I have a `decompress` function which, given a file-like
object pointing to an archive, will return a computed file object which
it will decompress to it's output.
Everything works very well, but I would like to be able to name the
`computed-file` objects something meaningfull.
```
(define (unzip f)
(computed-file (string-append (name f) "-unzipped")
#~(begin
(system* (string-append #$unzip "/bin/unzip")
"-d" #$output
#$file))
#$out))
```
Is there someting which ressembles the imaginary `name` function I used
above?
Cheers.
