Unhelpful error message when not enough arguments are sent to map #193

Closed justinethier closed 9 years ago

justinethier commented 10 years ago

When map does not receive enough arguments, a cryptic error message is displayed:

huski> (map list)
Getting an unbound variable: lis1

It would be better if the error message pointed the user in the right direction. Consider how CHICKEN behaves:

#;1> (map list)
Error: too few arguments - received 1 but expected 2: #<procedure (f_10189 fn1696 lst11697 . lsts1698)>

Fixed in the next release.
