[Chicken-users] Help with writing a macro

[Patrick Li]

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to write the following macro using the syntax-rules system, and got stuck trying to figure out the ellipsis. Would someone mind giving me a hand with this? I really appreciate it.

I'm trying to write a macro that will tranform:

(temp (a b c) do-this do-that do-other)

into this:

(do (do-this a b c)

    (do-that a b c)

    (do-other a b c))

And here's my attempt at it:

(define-syntax temp

  (syntax-rules ()

    ((temp args fs ...) (do (fs args ...) ...))))

Obviously it doesn't work, as the ellipsis are not balanced on both sides. I think I might need some sort of helper macro, but don't know what.

Thanks for your help!
