If I fire up gsi, I can do:
(+ 1 (+ 2 'a)) *** ERROR IN (console)@3.6 -- (Argument 2) NUMBER expected (+ 2 'a) 1> ,(c 3) 4
$ cat test.scm: (eval '(+ 1 (+ 2 'a))) $ gsi test.scm *** ERROR -- (Argument 2) NUMBER expected (+ 2 'a) $ okay ... so gsi dies on me, I look into main.scm (in the gambit source, this repl-debug function looks like what I wnat) $ cat test2.scm cat test2.scm (define (my-eval x) (with-exception-catcher ##repl-debug (lambda () (pp x) (eval x)))) (pp (my-eval '(+ 1 (+ 2 'a)))) $ gsi test2.scm (+ 1 (+ 2 'a))
,(c 3) 3 $
I dislike this for two reasons. 1) I miss the error statement of: *** ERROR -- (Argument 2) NUMBER expected and 2) I get 3 instead of 4. How can i correct these two? I suspect this is likely a 2 line fix since the functionality already exists. thanks! -- -- symbolic expression
