Hi Kjell,

are you actually asking me? I'm pretty new to actives, and know no other place to look for them than the one Gavin suggested to look at.

Best,

by reference I meant assignment.

is code what goes into the variable on an assignment?

An active variable is a variable that expands when it is referenced or
assigned to.  Now where would that be useful?  Any examples?

What happens to the value of the variable when this expansion takes place?

Is code what goes into the variable on a reference?

Is this like in Scheme where variables can contain functions?

Can you give an example of how active variables are defined and used?
Or a link.

I looked up active variable but didn't get anything.

Michael (Haupt): would Alessandro's construct satisfy your needs? If
so, then under my proposal it would look like: [...]

I think it would; but in any case, I will also investigate Gavin's
"actives" proposal.

Best,
