[plt-scheme] PLT 399, keyword arguments and SRFI 26
Hi all,
I'm converting some code from PLT 37x to the scheme/base language in
PLT v399, and I'm getting a rather odd error. When I combine keywords
and the "cut" macro I get an error message. For example:
1 #lang scheme/base
2
3 (require srfi/26/cut)
4
5 (define (add #:a a #:b b)
6 (+ a b))
7
8 (define add2
9 (cut add #:a <> #:b 2))
10
11 (display (add2 1))
I get the following error message (in this example at line 9):
#%datum: keyword used as an expression in: #:a
It doesn't seem like this should cause a problem because AFAIK "cut"
rewrites to a simple lambda. However, it did occur to me that the
lambda in the mzscheme language (in which "cut.ss" is presumably
written) is different to the lambda from scheme/base. Is this the
source of the problem or am I barking up the wrong tree?
It'd be really nice to convince cut to work with keyword lambdas - I
use it *everywhere*.
Cheers,
-- Dave
