Ah, but what, pray tell, *is* "the native notation" of a domain? And why are you so sure it's almost never sexps? Sexps are a natural fit to at least one other domain I can think of: mathematics. And if only mathematicians used sexps it would be easy to generate things like automated proof-vetters and the like using lisp. :) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
