Hi, I've got another problem. The fact is that what I want to do with
defmacro's declarations is to be able to compute the next type of
declaration:

(my-macro (1 2 3 4) (1 2 3 4) ... (5 6 7 2))

For example, to compute each list that conforms the arg-list.

But I don't know how to define the macro to get the list of args without
being evaluated.

One example I've tried to is:

(defmacro my-macro (&rest args)
 `(car ,args)
)

And the result for the call:

(my-macro (1 2) (1 4) (3 1 4))

is that (1 2) is not a function name.

What do I do?

Thanx
