In a Lisp, anything useful for "tool support" and accessible from inside the language tends to be useful sometimes in macros as well; perhaps macros need to be considered part of "tool support" for a Lisp. After all, they are used to extend and metaprogram the language. -- Protege: What is this seething mass of parentheses?! Master: Your father's Lisp REPL. This is the language of a true hacker.
