The standard is about the read syntax; at least, Common Lispexplicitly says it is implementation dependent what the result of(read "`(foo ,bar)") is.For Emacs, that currently gives (\` (foo (\, bar))), I think it would be nicer if it gave (quasiquote (foo (unqote bar)). From what I cantell this has been standard in Scheme since r3rs (1986).
Hehe I like "quasiquote".
