Hi,

Sorry for the late reply.

Alexei Matveev <address@hidden> skribis:

The macros in numbers.h that are “symbol macros”, such as
‘scm_from_int’, allow users to write code like:

  &scm_from_int

This wouldn’t be possible if these were function macros.

Thus, I think things will have to remain this way.

What do you think?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
