Make dash--match public?

[okamsn]

Hello,

I am writing a macro that can optionally use Dash for destructuring, and have been using dash--match to create a list of bindings suitable for using in a setq or let form. This has worked well.

Please consider making this function public, so that it can be depended on by other packages.

Thank you.

Sure, that would be nice. But I think these parts could use some cleanup before usefully being exposed.

In the meantime, have you tried using the built-in pcase/pcase-let/pcase-defmacro destructuring?

Yes. Pcase and Dash have different ways of expressing destructuring, and a user requested that I support both. I see value in having both, and not duplicating the work Dash has already done.

I actually made a similar request to the authors of Pcase to make public Pcase's destructuring interface, which I am still testing.

Oh yes, I didn't recognise your name from that feature request: https://bugs.gnu.org/47261
