If not, see . #| This file implements the #{ ... #} reader extension that allows embedding values in LilyPond syntax within Scheme code. At read time, the implementation of this reader extension outputs a call to read-lily-expression-internal. At evaluation time, read-lily-expression-internal will clone the current parser to parse the value, and return it. Complications arise because of the Scheme code that this LilyPond might in turn embed. We want the local variables from outer Scheme code to be available to that inner Scheme code, as in (let ((mus ...)) #{ \transpose c d #mus #}) The "obvious" thing to do would be to use Guile's local-eval facility, which allows capturing a lexical environment and later evaluating expressions in that environment. This implementation is different. When reading #{ #}, we catch Scheme expressions. Say we encounter an expression . We will output code that passes (lambda () ) to read-lily-expression-internal, associated with the position of this in the source. When the parser wants to evaluate this bit of Scheme code, it will just call that thunk (0-argument function). While this implementation is an artifact of history, it is being kept because it has features that would not be possible with local-eval. For example, it plays nicely with quasiquotation. Example from David K.: #(define-macro (pattern args result) `(define-music-function (parser location ,@args) ,(make-list (length args) 'ly:music?) #{ $@(list ,@result) #})) $(pattern (A B C D) (A B D A C D)) { a' } { b' } { c'' } { d'' } This works because quasiquoting a Scheme expression that includes a #{ #} that in turn includes an inner Scheme expression, and unquoting in that inner Scheme expression indeed performs the substitution. The code (lambda () ) is generated and includes an unquote form, which is replaced during macro expansion. In more low-level terms, this means that the macro expansion phase of the outer Scheme code also processes the inner Scheme code. That would not be possible with local-eval. On the other hand, it does have the shortcoming that something like ##{ \paper { #(define foo 'bar) } #} is not possible, since (lambda () (define foo 'bar)) is not valid. |# (define (read-lily-expression-internal lily-string filename line closures) "Direct the lilypond parser to parse LILY-STRING, using FILENAME, LINE for diagnostics.
