Much like how `can_compile` returns the compilation result, which some
tests make use of, it may be useful for for `cant_compile` to return the
exception object that it caught, for more specific assertions.
This also breaks out the PY3 only tests into their own file. We need to do this because raise from is a syntax error in PY2, so we can't rely on the previous hack of catching a HyCompileError - it would compile fine through Hy and then be a syntax error in Python.
This version is much simpler.
At the point that the exception is raised, we don't have access to
the actual source, just the current expression. but as the
exception percolates up, we can intercept it, add the source and
the re-raise it.
Then at the final point, in the cmdline handler, we can choose to
let the entire traceback print, or just the simpler, direct error
message.
And even with the full traceback, the last bit is nicely formatted
just like the shorter, simpler message.
The error message is colored if clint is installed, but to avoid
yet another dependency, you get monochrome without clint.
I'm sure there is a better way to do the markup, the current method
is kludgy but works.
I wish there was more shared code between HyTypeError and LexException
but they are kind of different in some fundamental ways.
This doesn't work (yet) with runtime errors generated from Python,
like NameError, but I have a method that can catch NameError and turn it
into a more pleasing output.
Finally, there is no obvious way to raise HyTypeError from pure Hy code,
so methods in core/language.hy throw ugly TypeError/ValueError.
When calling get with more than two arguments, treat the rest as indexes
into the expression from the former. That is, (get foo "bar" "baz")
would translate to foo["bar"]["baz"], and so on.
This fixes#362.

A macro is available in the module where it was defined and
in any module that does a require of the defining module.
Only macros defined in hy.core are globally available.
Fixes#181
We actually only generate an ast.Lambda if (lambda) was called, as a lot of code
expect ast.FunctionDefs (most notably with_decorator).
This allows empty lambdas too.
This fixes#165.
This object allows to coerce statements to an expression, if we need to use
them that way, which, with a lisp, is often.
This was collaborative work that has been rebased to make it bisectable.

The new and improved (import) can handle all cases import-as and
import-from did, so drop the latter two from the language. To do this,
the import builtin had to be changed a little: if there's a single
import statement to return, return it as-is, otherwise return a list of
imports.
