what would the benefit of generating multiple macros for each service compared to the above functional API (with 3-4 elements altogether)? i could be missing something here, but it seems to be precious little to me while it costs some extra complexity. if i were to add a syntactic abstraction for this, i'd generate a full DSL in the form of a (modify-operating-system OS [fictional DSL to describe desired changes]). but i don't think the extra complexity justifies any macrology here. -- • attila lendvai • PGP: 963F 5D5F 45C7 DFCD 0A39 -- By the time a man realises that his father was right, he has a son who thinks he’s wrong.
