Trying to esc vector of variables in macro

gistfile1.jl

macro window(name, data...)
  namestring = string(name)
  quote
  filters = getfilters(symbol($namestring))
  if !isempty(filters)
    for filter in filters
      filter.enabled && filter.f($(data...))
    end
  end
  end
end

why not:

function window(name, data...)
  namestring = symbol(string(name))
  return function()
  filters = getfilters(name)
  if !isempty(filters)
    for filter in filters
      filter.enabled && filter.f(data...)
    end
  end
  end
end
