I am writing a little makefile generator for the various documentation tools we use around the office here, and I wanted to use keywords to do a little deffin' and was surprised to find keywords apparently busticated in guile 1.2. I have not tried any other version so far. For example: guile> (keyword? :key) ERROR: While evaluating arguments to keyword? in expression (keyword? :key): ERROR: Unbound variable: :key ABORT: (misc-error) Should it not just evaluate to itself? This is straight from an example in the docs. This works in CMUCL 8^) Please tell me I'm doing something wrong. I can work around this by just making some symbols, but keywords are just so darn useful for this. -- Craig Brozefsky craig@onshore.com onShore Inc. http://www.onshore.com/~craig Programmer loitering on the edge
