I've already incorporated some of the changes you just submitted, basically the type annotations and a tweaked version of your "translate-cl". It's *easiest* for me if you use git, but you don't need to. If you don't want to install and use git, you can download the current version this way: http://sourceforge.net/p/readable/code/ci/develop/tree/src/kernel.scm?format=raw ... but please let me know when you downloaded it. That will make it is easier for me to integrate if there are other changes. > No, it does not compute any value upon entry...

Okay. It's not clear to me that this optimization is worth it, but I think with the addition of a type declaration it'll be obvious enough. Let's just add the type declaration and do it as proposed. > > Why all the redefines from "body" to "read-body"? > > We normally use the same name as per the grammar. > > RScheme idiosyncratic: `body` is already a bound elsewhere within some > code required com compile this code. > Hence RScheme complains about the "semantic error" and that redefinition > would break things. > > The only reasonable way I saw was to change the name to avoid the conflict. > > However by re-considering the case now I understand that the desire to > keep `body` there literally to match the grammar.

Otherwise, I'm happy to rename definitions to make it work... I just want to minimize it, and document why there's a variance when it happens. > As I said, busy by now. Maybe next week if things go well. Okay! I look forward to it. Thanks so much for your time. --- David A.
