Alan Manuel Gloria:
So what function name do we use? c-read n-read t-read or
curly-infix-read neoteric-read sweet-read? Or provide both?
I think curly-infix-read, neoteric-read, and sweet-read. That'd be clearer.
I think c-expressions, n-expressions, and t-expressions are more abbreviations

You know, I've never known how to pronounce s-expressions either..
ess expressions = tee expressions
That's how I pronounce s-expressions, and how I'd pronounce t-expressions. But
that doesn't make it canonical :-).
I can see that having a simple abbreviated name is useful:

It was my understanding that modern-expressions was the name of the rule
that transformed the standard s-expr (function arg1 arg2 arg3)
into the sweet-expression form function(arg1 arg2 arg3)
Well, sort of.
Modern expressions add that transformation rule, but the other
f-expressions sounds like f*n-expressions, which is not the association I'm
looking for :-).
Also, fexprs are a real thing in lisp's history.
