This is a smbihm (stop me before I hurt myself) kind of question:

I'm writing a function that processes a list recursively. I'm using

@

at the beginning of a sublist to signal the function code to concatenate the rest of

the sublist into [var="value"] pairs

and

,

at the beginning of the sublist to tell the function code to evaluate the remainder

of the sublist.

<grin> sounds like a certain _other_ lisp doesn't it?</grin>

Any potential problems with that "down the road"?

thanks

I wouldn't expect problems with that.

Thanks. I didn't think any symbol would be a problem, but it is good

to have a second opinion.
