Re: syntax? in scheme/Guile

thank you Dave,

syntax? is enough for the operators like #'* #'+ etc that i  need to test
(even if some complex syntax object are returned #f) :
scheme@(guile-user)> (use-modules (system syntax))
scheme@(guile-user)> syntax?
$1 = #<procedure syntax? (_)>
scheme@(guile-user)> (syntax? #'(2 * 3))
$2 = #f
scheme@(guile-user)> #'(2 * 3)
$3 = (#<syntax:unknown file:6:3 2> #<syntax:unknown file:6:5 *>
#<syntax:unknown file:6:7 3>)
scheme@(guile-user)> (syntax? #'*)
$4 = #t
scheme@(guile-user)> (syntax *)
$5 = #<syntax:unknown file:8:8 *>
scheme@(guile-user)> (syntax? *)
$6 = #f

regards,
damien
