British-pounds-sterling-sign readmacro? (That's what I see in my Emacs
newsreader.)

(mapcar λ(format "~A:~A" λ1 λ2) list)

Here, by contrast, I see lambdas.

But I'm curious: how does the nesting of this macro work? What does

(lambda (x)
(lambda (y z)
(f x y z)))

look like in this shorthand format?


λ(λ1 λ(f λ1 λ2 λ3))
