I care because case insensitivity is something that Scheme has had for a long time, and because of the confusion that case sensitivity causes, especially when one is trying to discuss a program out loud. I've lived in the case-sensitive Java world for several years, where it's a pain to have a conversation about lines like this: Type type = new Type(); I don't want that to happen to Scheme. And I don't want that to happen to the many students who learn programming through Scheme. Case is just not an interesting thing for people to have to pay attention to in a programming language. _______________________________________________ r6rs-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.r6rs.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/r6rs-discuss
