Hi, Could you change the comparision in the SRFI¹ from my first email to the real implementation in Wisp?
¹: http://srfi.schemers.org/srfi-110/srfi-110.html#arne Changes: - the sublist with inline : always ends at the end of the line (thanks to Alan) - inconsistent dedents produce broken code (they *should* throw an error). - the name is wisp :) This means that some examples change: first: should not use double colons: let : : x : compute 'x : y : compute 'y use x y new: let : x : compute 'x y : compute 'y use x y SUBLIST comparison: old: would not be written like that (though you can)… begin . (display "Welcome, ") (display player) (display ", to Chicago!") (newline) but rather like this: begin display "Welcome, " display player display ", to Chicago!" newline or like this, if you want more complex expressions: begin display concat "Welcome, " player . ", to Chicago!" newline This uses more vertical space - and I don’t mind (so it is a design choice not to try very hard to minimize vertical space). For the single gigantic top-level datum, you just indent the rest (as in class definitions in Python): library : example import : scheme base export . example-init example-open example-close begin define : example-init whatever ... ... define : example-open x whatever ... ... define : example-close y whatever ... ... I’m used to pythen, and to me this looks completely natural. Compare: class example: def __init__(): import base print base.stuff def localfunc(): whatever … … Best wishes, Arne At Mon, 01 Apr 2013 23:53:57 +0200, Arne Babenhauserheide wrote: > > [1 <multipart/signed (quoted-printable)>] > [1.1 <text/plain; utf-8 (quoted-printable)>] > Am Donnerstag, 28.
