Are macros still an enormous edge in the power of a language?
apu: Are macros still at the "top" of the features pyramid?In http://www.paulgraham.com/avg.html , PG argues that Lisp is more powerful than other languages because it has macros. However, in the 50 years since the invention/discovery of Lisp, is there now some language that has a new feature X that lisps don't have (and can't easily add)? Or are macros still the "pinnacle" of language features?
