When Scheme forked from Maclisp, there were no packages > yet, so colon wasn't special. OK, I'm so used to reading CL-style symbols I assumed you meant "cluser:" as a package name all along. But you meant it as an example of something that looks like a package name but isn't. Even without the vertical bars. > Serializing CL code is what I was saying was too big an effort, and we > shouldn't go there. It would have to handle conditional exclusions (#+ and > #-) and comments and all kinds of nasty ugly things. Ugh. You're right. > Examples: #ratio(11 10), #date"2019-11-11" These are very nice IMHO. ISO 8601 strings are probably the best representation for dates. They put so much work into that standard that we can hardly do better by trying to be clever with lists and such. Plus YYYY-MM-DD is a pretty standard thing to grep for in text files. > #bits[07-EE80] = CL > #*111011101, where the 07 means that the last 7 bits of the last byte are > not part of the bitvector. Does this notation ever become natural to read; is it used somewhere already? > I really don't want #bits#u8"07EE00" just to > avoid square brackets; it's a human readability fail. I thought you'd want #bits"07EE00" so "#bits" is the things that does the magic interpretation of the doubld-quoted string. I guess there can be examples where this gets unwieldy. Maybe it'll be clumsy to implement even in the case of #bits. Have to think about this.
