I implemented something like the first one in my m-expression reader, "a -> b;" is translated into "(fn a b)". It could be used with cchooper's customisable reader, so you can still use s-exprs most of the time, like this:

  (map #m[a;b]-> 0 - b / 2 / a; my-list)

it would be read as

  (map (fn (a b) (- 0 (/ b 2 a))) my-list)
