While we're on the subject, are there any plans for a sexp-comment? Essentially I'm looking for reader syntax that removes the next expression from the parse tree entirely. (comment ...) returns nil, which isn't always appropriate. (You can't use it to remove one of the (arglist body) forms of a defn, for example.) And using semicolons often requires you to move closing parens to the next line. Block comments work for this, but I consider them more verbose than necessary - maybe that's just me.
(I once tried to write a reader macro for CL which would do this, but the best I got was one which would read two forms and ignore the first.) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
