I'd like to have a function
(defun call-with-foo (a b function) ...)
be indented like
(call-with-foo (foo 1 2 3) (bar 9 8 7) #'(lambda (x) ...))
Still very verbose: call-with- + lambda, or in your case call-with- + #' + lambda, is a lot of noise. Seems like a bad idiom to me.
I'm tempted to change SWANK indentation update code to recognize and treat specially functions starting with CALL-WITH, and having a last parameter named FUNCTION or CONTINUATION.
I could see people not wanting it, so let me ask what you guys think. Should this be default behaviour, go to a contrib, or should I be damned for raising the question?
I don't want that as default.
IMO a better solution would be a defining macro that defines call-with-X functions and automatically the corresponding with-X macros with appropriate use of &body. The same approach could also deal with do-X style macros.
