Comment (by carter):

 @rodlogic, this ticket isn't meant to be a tutorial :)
 "make it easier to write Deep Embeddings with lambdas" is the meat of the
 ticket,
 the "DSL notation" section of the idris tutorial explains this with
 examples http://eb.host.cs.st-andrews.ac.uk/writings/idris-tutorial.pdf,
 which you can read in the preceding link
