Try also the macro stepper. From an upcoming package for the repl: -> (define-syntax m (syntax-rules () ((_ x) (lambda (x) (lambda (y) x))))) -> ,stx (m y) * syntax set stepper: Macro transformation (m y) ==> (lambda:1 (y) (lambda:1 (y:1) y)) (But you'd usually want to use the gui version...) -- ((lambda (x) (x x)) (lambda (x) (x x))) Eli Barzilay: http://barzilay.org/ Maze is Life! _________________________________________________ For list-related administrative tasks: http://lists.racket-lang.org/listinfo/users
