I don't think I need anything more than :outer and .lex for the Amber compiler. I certainly don't need to specify or manipulate pad_depth. > .HLL_map .LexPad -> .DynLexPad # (2) Why not use "," instead of "->"? It would be one less special-case for the PIR programmer to remember. PDD20 says: > .HLL "Tcl", "tcl_group" > ... > P0 = new Integer # really TclInteger What do I write when I really want a new Integer (e.g. to pass to a routine written in something other than the current .HLL?)? I'd prefer to ask for mappings explicitly, e.g. something like this: .HLL "Tcl", "tcl_group" ... $P0 = new Integer # really Integer $P1 = new_mapped Integer # really TclInteger Regards, Roger Browne
