Re: Please rename TRY to something else

This page is part of the web mail archives of SRFI 34 from before July 7th, 2015. The new archives for SRFI 34 contain all messages, not just those from before July 7th, 2015.



  From: "Manual Serrano" <Manuel.Serrano@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

  I will have a look at the specification but first of all, let me ask you
  a favor. Bigloo is already using TRY. It is already a special form for
  Bigloo. Please give me a chance to implement SRFi-34 by renaming this form. 

The Bigloo form takes two arguments and SRFI-34's takes three, so
there should be no technical problem with implementing both.  It
would be a bit ugly.

Can you suggest another name?  TRY seems the natural one.
