I think Eli means "the documentation system" by "the whole thing", but the equivalence between at-exps and s-exps is at the heart of why at-exps are great, and why Eli's design succeeded where many many other people have failed in this space. If you're learning about at-exps, keeping this equivalence in mind is very useful. Sam ____________________ Racket Users list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/users
