Fail to invoke g(f(x))

I want to invoke g(f(x)) which is equal to x actually. However the following does not compile in PostScript stage (I think). Could you fix it? I am not asking how to plot y=x but how to invoke the composition function g(f(x)).
MWE
documentclass[pstricks,border=12pt]{standalone}
usepackage{pst-plot}
deff(#1){((#1-2)/(2*(#1)+1))}% y=f(x)
defg(#1){((2+#1)/(1-2*(#1)))}% y=g(x) in which g is the inverse of f.
begin{document}
begin{pspicture}[algebraic](-4,-4)(6,6)
psaxes{->}(0,0)(-4,-4)(5.5,5.5)[$x$,0][$y$,90]
psset{linecolor=blue,linewidth=2pt}
psplot{-4}{5}{g(f(x))}
end{pspicture}
end{document}

Usedeff#1{((#1-2)/(2*(#1)+1))} defg#1{((2+#1)/(1-2*(#1)))}andpsplot{-4}{5}{g{f{x}}}, i.e. the usual curly braces instead of round ones. When you usedeff(#1)you are using delimited arguments which have problems when you nest calls (like the[and]of optional arguments)

It is the same situation as forbegin{lstlisting}[language={[LaTeX]TeX}]. The inner[...]have to be braced.

The use of similar parameter text for f and g is what causes the problem here. The first occurrence of a (...) pair is used to extract the arguments. So, in
g(f(<x>))
passes the incomplete f(<x> as the argument to g. To get around this, brace the argument to avoid confusion:
documentclass{article}
usepackage{pst-plot}
deff(#1){((#1-2)/(2*(#1)+1))}% y=f(x)
defg(#1){((2+#1)/(1-2*(#1)))}% y=g(x) in which g is the inverse of f.

psplot{-4}{5}{g({f(x)})}
