David,
I think I have a general solution, but it uses a couple of hacks that i
am not happy with at the moment. To make it a little easier to use, I am
looking at making some changes to the grammar to add an additional
construct that can then generate the required icon code.
However, I am still looking at this to ensure that I can still use all
the normal icon constructs within the new form. We see how this goes
over the next bit of time.
regards
Bruce Rennie

Bruce,
I believe we had exchanged a few emails on this when I was doing work
on Rosettacode.org. There is a Lambda task their and I was definitely
having problems generalizing them.

Good morning Clint,
I have been trying to develop a technique in Unicon to do lambda
functions using co-expressions, etc. However, it would be nice if
there was a standard easy means to do this within the language.
I am still looking at the various task facilities that i was
writing about earlier.
So many projects and so little time.
regards
Bruce Rennie.

Kim,
Everyone on our list should hear about our brother language
Object Icon if they haven't already. It may be just the ticket
for folks who need Unicode support in an Icon dialect, I don't
know. If it meets your needs that is outstanding news.
At present, my relationship with Unicon star citizen Robert
Parlett is: I worship the ground he walks on, and he won't talk
to me. He is literally one of the finest programmers I have ever
seen, and I have seen some good ones. Out of respect, I have not
borrowed any code or ideas from Object Icon even though it is
open source. If Robert wanted Unicon to have Unicode support, he
would contribute it or bless such cross fertilization.
I can only speculate, but I think Robert wanted to have freedom
and control to change everything about Icon and make it how he
wanted it, and for Unicon I was holding him back by insisting, as
Ralph Griswold did, on 99+% backward compatibility. Robert has
done great things for Unicon, and I am sure he has done great
things in Object Icon. I regret that we are not at present doing
great things together, but he's gotta do what's right for him. I
encourage you to check out Object Icon further. For Unicon, our
primary attentions lately have been on concurrency and 3D and
networking improvements, but we are at a point now where new
directions are sought, so Unicode is a great suggestion and I
hope we get some others.
Cheers,
Clint
