I'd forgotten about the whole Lisp tradition of expanding + evaluating one form at a time -- once again betraying my Scheme biases. :) That's making it hard for me to think about how to compare the two. I'm really not familiar enough with the one-form-at-a-time approach. Anyway, my takeaways here are: - I shouldn't've said anything about Clojure specifically, because a) the design space is different and b) they have some form of hygiene-like something-or-other that I don't know enough about. Gotta go study them! - I still don't know how to do hygiene in Scheme-like languages any other way than the approaches I've seen, but I do agree they're more complicated than I wish they were. Dave |
