Yes, I'm used to it in Prolog and Haskell. I don't see why any variable should be bound here, however, anonymous or not. It is no doubt compiled away, but I think the code is a bit less clear. It's not a big deal, though. _______________________________________________ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
