Whups. I earlier said: > This means that: > #;a#|hi|#(x) z > is interpreted as (a (x) z), and not ((a x) z).
What I *meant* is that this would be interpreted as ((x) z), and not as (z). Basically, #; skips the next datum. The question is, given a#|hi|#(x), should the "following datum" be "a" or "a(x)"? By greedily reading everything following (, [, or {, and giving up when the tail doesn't start with those, the answer is that "a" is the next datum skipped. Basically, if you want to write a(x), you need to have NOTHING between the "a" and the opening "(". Which is consistent with SRFI-105 anyway. --- David A.
