In the mean time I did a search "guile scheme quote", and indeed the right doc page is there (16th on duckduckgo), and google is way better (1st place)... I forgot that sometimes google gives better answers than ddg... 3 - I'd add the following to (unquote-splicing expr): `(1 ,x 4) =E2=87=92 (1 (2 3) 4) to better demonstrate the effect of splicing and to (unquote expr) : `(1 2 (* 9 9) 3 4) =E2=87=92 (1 2 (* 9 9) 3 4) --=20 Vincent Legoll
