That's not a feature of Scheme. It must be a feature of the implementation you use. (Which one?) E.g. in R7RS, [ ] and { } are explicitly reserved for future language extensions.

- haolez 5y agoMy last Lisp project was using Racket, but when it was called PLT Scheme. It's been a long time since then :)
- gmfawcett 5y agoIt seems like only yesterday... but you're right, we are old. :) I was never a big PLT user -- Chicken Scheme for life! -- but they have always been about pushing language boundaries, I'm not surprised to hear that they supported an extended syntax.
