Yeah, I was thinking #5x4x3x2(...), but dropping the A poses some problems with rank-0 arrays. (Per Bothner finally convinced me.) There's a simple solution for PLT Scheme: Declare that boxed values are equivalent to rank-0 arrays, just as SRFI 58 makes vectors equivalent to rank-1 arrays. Then you can use the box literal syntax for rank-0 arrays. Kinda kludgy, but at least it sticks to prior art. -- Bradd W. Szonye http://www.szonye.com/bradd
