I wrote a package the other day to simulate Python's chained comparisons syntax; it's on PLaneT and shows both the use of the syntax objects in preserving source locations, as well as using the hygiene to bind the values between the binops to avoid duplicate evaluation. Syntax objects are a bit rich because they're doing a lot of work. _________________________________________________ For list-related administrative tasks: http://lists.racket-lang.org/listinfo/users
