Hello schemers! R6RS specifies an inline hex escape syntax for symbols. These do not work in Guile 2.2.3:
scheme@(guile-user)> (read-enable 'r6rs-hex-escapes) $1 = (square-brackets r6rs-hex-escapes keywords #f positions) scheme@(guile-user)> (symbol->string '\x7c; ) $2 = "\\x7c" I expected this to return "|". While fixing this, perhaps it would also be possible to add recognition of #!r6rs to set the appropriate per-port read options, similarly to how #!fold-case is recognized? It would make it much easier to load R6RS code in Guile. Best Regards, -- Göran Weinholt Debian developer 73 de SA6CJK
