Hi,
I was just wondering about the origin of the `mpl::quote` metafunction class. Why was this name chosen?
I don't know for certain, but I always assumed it was a nod in the direction of the list quote operator, which leaves its argument
Did you mean "lisp" quote operator?

MPL quote is indeed reminiscent of LISP quote As much as it goes, MPL is basically a TMP LISP with an ugly dress.
