If Python had a macro facility similar to Lisp/Scheme (something like MetaPython), how would you use it?
If you are a Lisp/Scheme programmer, what sorts of things do you use macros for (other than things that have a clear syntactic parallel in Python such as a while loop)?
I think the question is clear enough, but I'd like to clarify it because it's subjective at some point and I don't want it closed.

Today (Sept 12, 2008) I heard a new one from a friend, Lars-Gunnar, he said "Gud finns i Emacs" (in Swedish). This basically means "God is in Emacs". Still laughing about it here :) What he meant was that a function "gud is grand-unified-debugger" is in Emacs.
A great one I think all programmers should know is The Three Great Virtues of a Programmer.

Writing an app that will include the ability to decompress zip and rar files. I think I'm OK on how to handle the .zips but .rars seem a little more trouble. I noticed that rarlabs has source available but it's C++. Is there a way to compile, wrap or otherwise use this code within an iPhone app?
Reference: http://www.rarlab.com/rar_add.htm
Open to alternate suggestions on how to handle .rar files as well.
I'm still pretty much a newbie so please explain in small words :)
