lambda and fn missing in (symbols)

[HPW]

lambda and fn are missing in the return of (symbols).

Are they no primitives?

(Found on building keyword-lists for highlighting)

[Lutz]

They are not really primitives, but rather a special type of a list, for that reason:

Code Select Expand


> (empty? '(fn))
true
> (first '(fn (x) (+ x x))) ;; not 'fn'
(x)
>


but in editos they definitely should be highlighted, as well as 'nil' and 'true'
