Your answer is perfect. Thanks a lot! I sent you a private message already to have some further discussion. Mianlai On Thu, May 21, 2015 at 12:43 PM, Alexander D.

Re: [racket-users] Doing pattern matching by reader macro
Here’s one way to do something like that with a macro: https://github.com/AlexKnauth/define-match-spread-out/blob/master/define-match-spread-out/main.rkt And using it: https://github.com/AlexKnauth/define-match-spread-out/blob/master/define-match-spread-out/tests/test.rkt On May 18, 2015, at 9:39 AM, Mianlai Zhou mianlai.resea...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Matthias, Thanks for answer.

Re: [racket-users] Doing pattern matching by reader macro
Your best bet is to define a new language that overrides define after taking over the body of the module. This may even be an example in the docs.
