When I run this code: #+BEGIN_SRC scheme :session ch1 :exports both (define (check-it x) (cond ((string? x) (string-length x)) ((number? x) (if (<= x 0) x (sub1 x))) ((boolean? x) (if (and #t x) 10 20)) (else #f))) #+END_SRC I get this error message: org-babel-scheme-execute-with-geiser: Invalid read syntax: "#" But the Chicken Scheme session has accepted the check-it function just fine. A stand-alone csi REPL works fine, too. Why, then, do I get this cryptic error? LB
