I know this thread is kind of dead, but I could not help but point out
that traditional closures have a more immediate mapping onto
quotations in factor than Pinochio indicates in his post above. The
factor word '[ provides a kind of intelligent quotation construction

I was a little surprised that fold was not a standard function but I
didn't run my mouth off about it - just typed "reduce" into the repl
and found out it was called that instead.

When I encountered this post, my instinct was to suggest that he write
a specific macro to bind these particular variables rather than depend
on magic to make new bindings at run-time from symbols known only at
run-time, a la:
(defmacro with-a-b-c [m & body] `(let [mp# ,mp] a (:a mp#) b (:b mp#)
Meikel,
What concerns me is that this macro lets you write code which depends
on names which are not present at compile time (someplace). Coming
from scheme, not only would you _not_ do this, but you _can't_ do it
without using eval in your macro body, which is considered bad form.
That we can d
or use with CLOS objects. It is similar
reasoning which requires you name the slots you want to access when
using with-slots.

Not true, actually. The latest octaves support c code, if you can
recompile it yourself. It is pretty easy.
