Yes, let syntax is a big drawback with the "indentation implies parentheses" strategy. As a complete aside, in Haskell, there's a special "fallback" rule where an error due to indentation matching will cause the parser to attempt to close a group. This rule usually triggers in Haskell's let...in syntax (basically, the "in" keyword is generally a syntax error except after a let group, so the parser usually errors here when indentation is used), which seems to imply to me that even Haskell has some trouble with let syntax, which was simply "fixed" with this hackish solution. xref http://www.haskell.org/onlinereport/syntax-iso.html#sect9.3 , particularly Note 5. > Also, I used > 'cond' in lieu of 'if' because I liked the look of having > an 'else'. Yes, the "old" syntaxes like that tend to be very pretty in indentation syntax. > > It works for me with Guile 2.0.9 and Readable 1.0. > Thanks, > > Mike Gran > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Rapidly troubleshoot problems before they affect your business.
