Hello, I'm trying to write a library with two main parts. The first is a macro, I'll call it 'with-feature, that walks through forms passed inside it, and any time it sees a call to another function in my library, 'feature, do some transformations.
The problem I'm concerned about is as follows: When my macro sees the forms that are passed into it, the symbols come in however the consumer of the library wrote them. So say I :require my library and alias it to 'mylib', then the call 'with-feature is looking for appears as 'mylib/feature. Or, I could :use the library, and then it would appear as 'feature, or I could alias 'feature to 'banana--you get the idea. I don't want to reserve some magic symbol name that defies namespace rules, so that if the library consumer code uses the symbol 'feature to mean something different, they get bizarre results. What is a good pattern for writing the "matching" logic in such a selectively-transforming macro so that it can properly find the magic call it's looking for in the presence of normal namespacing behavior?
