Description
examples from scribble/example does not preserve the 'paren-shape syntax property, and presumably drops other syntax properties as well. Given the following program:
#lang scribble/manual
@(require scribble/example)
@(examples (syntax-property #'[1 2 3] 'paren-shape))
…it produces the following output:
> (syntax-property #'[1 2 3] 'paren-shape)
#f
This is not due to scribble/manual, because the following program works as expected:
@(println (syntax-property #'[1 2 3] 'paren-shape))
; => #\[
