Bug Description

I'd like to be able to have the printer/writer print/write (quote whatever) as (quote whatever) instead of 'whatever and same for all the others like unquote, syntax, etc.

Usually, I want 'whatever, but I'm working on something where I actually want it to look like (quote whatever).

Thanks.

Done in 1473. Now you can set the pretty format (which affects write, display, pretty-print, and format) to #f in order to disable special formatting:

> (parameterize ([(pretty-format 'quote) #f]) (printf "~s\n" '''''12))
(quote (quote (quote (quote 12))))
