- ;;; Commentary:
-
- ;; This module exports two syntax forms: let-values and let*-values.
- ;;
- ;; Sample usage:
- ;;
- ;; (let-values (((x y . z) (foo a b))
- ;; ((p q) (bar c)))
- ;; (baz x y z p q))
- ;;
- ;; This binds `x' and `y' to the first to values returned by `foo',
- ;; `z' to the rest of the values from `foo', and `p' and `q' to the
- ;; values returned by `bar'. All of these are available to `baz'.
- ;;
- ;; let*-values : let-values :: let* : let
- ;;
- ;; This module is fully documented in the Guile Reference Manual.

- ;; (lambda (<tmp-x> <tmp-y> . <tmp-z>)
- ;; (call-with-values (lambda () (bar c))
- ;; (lambda (<tmp-p> <tmp-q>)
- ;; (let ((x <tmp-x>)

- ;; (baz x y z p q))))))
-
- ;; I originally wrote this as a define-macro, but then I found out
- ;; that guile's gensym/gentemp was broken, so I tried rewriting it as
- ;; a syntax-rules statement.
- ;;
- ;; Since syntax-rules didn't seem powerful enough to implement
- ;; let-values in one definition without exposing illegal syntax (or
- ;; perhaps my brain's just not powerful enough :>). I tried writing
- ;; it using a private helper, but that didn't work because the
- ;; let-values expands outside the scope of this module. I wonder why
- ;; syntax-rules wasn't designed to allow "private" patterns or
- ;; similar...
- ;;
- ;; So in the end, I dumped the syntax-rules implementation, reproduced
- ;; here for posterity, and went with the define-macro one below --
- ;; gensym/gentemp's got to be fixed anyhow...

- ; ;; (<tmp-x> <tmp-y> <tmp-z>) ...) from above, keeping track of the
- ; ;; temps you create so you can use them later...
- ; ;;
- ; ;; I really don't fully understand why the (var-1 var-1) trick
- ; ;; works below, but basically, when all those (x x) bindings show
- ; ;; up in the final "let", syntax-rules forces a renaming.
