Is there a fast way of getting a reliable estimate as to how much compression to expect from gzip? By fast, certainly I mean much faster than gzip in terms of cpu cycles/swap space needed.
A portable-looking SYNTAX-CASE implementation...
...has been posted to a SRFI mailing list by Andre van Tonder. I think I will port this to librep.
Nonsense, as Neil Van Dyke pointed out to me. I linked to an implementation of records in SYNTAX-CASE, which I mistook for what I was after.... So, for the record, I don't know of a fairly portable SYNTAX-CASE implementation, by which I mean one based on a reasonably easy to integrate low-level macro facility.
