Uhmm, as usual I should have explained myself better. :-)
>> compose [ (print "Good" []) ]
Good
== []
Notice that if you return a block to compose, it will insert its
contents (and not the block itself!) in that position. Like this:
>> compose [a b c (load ask "What to add? ")]
What to add? d e f
== [a b c d e f]
So, if you don't want to add anything:
>> compose [a b c (load ask "What to add? ")]
What to add?
== [a b c]
I hope it is clearer now. :-)
Regards,
Gabriele.
