> I am and forever will be a fan of the scheme (and now clojure) convention of saying foo->bar to say foo to bar. I just think that's swell.

In his book—Lisp in Small Pieces—Christian Quienec suggests using a reversed arrow (ie. bar<-foo) so the direction of the arrow agrees with the evaluation order in a function composition. eg. (foo<-bar (bar<-foo ...)), which would have otherwise been (bar->foo (foo->bar ...)).
