the error message is: unbound location java.lang.System:nanoTime
but (java.lang.System:nanoTime) is just fine
so what's wrong? I'm new to kawa but have a little experience of
scheme and java.
I read the docs on http://www.gnu.org/software/kawa, but I still don't hnow why.
Can someone give me a hint? How to come through such problems?
This is a problem because Kawa tries to support both "colon notation":
http://www.gnu.org/software/kawa/Colon-notation.html
and also tries to run programs written for other Scheme implementations
where colon is just a constituent of a symbol. This is a bit of a
kludge, and the biggest problem is with quoted forms.
Not sure what the best solution is.
