I propose that we don't expose them via functions; that seems silly to me. Instead, users should just keep a table of what the values of these constants are for a given Guile major series. Defining them as enumerated values doesn't help e.g. an Ada compiler. The particular language should make this list in their own source code format, perhaps generated by a small C program linked to libguile. Thoughts? Andy -- http://wingolog.org/
