Yo- I've got a patch here that would allow one to "(read-enable 'r6rs-hex-escapes)" which, when enabled, would change the character hex escape format to #\xNNN, where NNN is a hexadecimal number of 1 to 8 digits. It also would change the string hex escape format to "\xNNN;" where NNN is 1 to 8 hex digits and where there is a terminating semicolon (!). This is in line with R6RS.
Questions? Comments? Also, since this isn't necessary to compile the compiler, should this sort of reader feature appear in the scheme code? Thanks, Mike
