Could someone summarize for me the syntax and semantics of any good
macro packages that exist (or should exist) for Scheme?  Should a macro,
like a procedure, capture a lexical environment when it's created?

Does anyone know what R4RS will say about macros, and/or when we will see R4RS?

Thanks in advance.
