Hello Guix,
This patch adds a shorthand for "(define-public name (package ...))":
(define-package my-favorite-package
(name "my-favorite-package")
...)
The purpose is primarily to save the horizontal indent, but IMO it looks
better, and is marginally more clear for newcomers. I think ideally we could
eventually transition to using this syntax as the primary syntax and only use
'define-public' when necessary.
There are some downsides... it's one more form to keep track of, and 'let'
forms can't easily be used with it.
Since it's a syntax rule, it doesn't cause packages to rebuild (tested). I've
also tested the indentation rules, indent-code.el, and the snippets.
This probably deserves a documentation addition, but I wasn't sure where to
add it without confusing newcomers. Suggestions welcome!
(If this is accepted, we'll also want to make a few changes to
emacs-guix/elisp/guix-devel.el, adding 'define-package' to
'guix-devel-keywords' and to 'guix-devel-scheme-indent' with level 1.)
What do you all think?
