Is there a way to escape the ellipsis so that you can write a macro that defines a macro? The "standard" is (... ...), but that doesn't appear to work.
Here is a demo of the problem...
;; macro that creates another macro that quotes its arguments (define-syntax mac (lambda (x) (syntax-case x () ((_ name) (syntax (define-syntax name (lambda (x) (syntax-case x () ((_ e (... ...)) (syntax (quote (e (... ...)))))))))))))
(mac mac2) (mac2 (1 2 (3))) ----> '(1 2 (3))
Actually, it evaluates to: ((1 2 (3))) (Petite Scheme yields the same result.) -- --Per Bothner per@bothner.com http://per.bothner.com/
