You miss out the best one: Allen's "Anatomy of Lisp". As to implementatations of scoping, the one vital reference is the CACM article (around 1975) by Baker on rerooting. -- Piercarlo "Peter" Grandi | ARPA: pcg%cs.aber.ac.uk@nsfnet-relay.ac.uk Dept of CS, UCW Aberystwyth | UUCP: ...!mcsun!ukc!aber-cs!pcg Penglais, Aberystwyth SY23 3BZ, UK | INET: pcg@cs.aber.ac.uk
