Clojure style binding with let- (new util)

[ejbs]

(defmacro let- (bindings &body body)
  `(let (,@(let ((binds (subdivide bindings 2)))
                (if (every #'(lambda (bind)
                               (= (length bind) 2))
                           binds)
                    binds
                    (error "Invalid bindings"))))
     ,@body))

Can this be released in the public domain?

[ejbs]

Sure, I don't really care. I just thought that MIT was "good enough". Also, gonna change the requirment to subdivide.

let+ name is already used by https://github.com/tpapp/let-plus Just to get you noticed.

[ejbs]

That's not good! Gonna change the code to show my disappointment (though let-plus looks nice)

[stylewarning]

@ejbs Can we call this let-clojure or something like that instead?

I would just like to try to avoid let1, let+, let-, let-let, sin(let), and e^(i*let + 1) kinds of macros too much.

@tarballs-are-good if you're interested in adding it, then whatever is fine by me. If you feel like it's not worth the trouble to add it, then I'd have no problem in closing this issue (considering that it was added over two years ago).
