I disagree with this suggestion. I would, of course, prefer constructor-style printing, as I said before, but if we absolutely have to use quasiquote printing for lists, let's be consistent about it. Any s-expression output is hard enough to read without having two different formats for lists in it. --Carl _________________________________________________ For list-related administrative tasks: http://list.cs.brown.edu/mailman/listinfo/plt-dev
