Hey, Vishnu! Welcome to the group. Did you write that you are a long-time Lisper? (Or was that the other guy who joined the same day?) Sorry, I am not sure....
Recently a 1.0 release of OpenMCL came out. I went to the local Mac shop in Bangalore (the only one, maybe) to download it and try it out. I don't want to...
As an old C (and assembly language) programmer who had checked out C++ to see what all the `OO' commotion was about (the OO idea at least seemed good at...
Hi, I have been a lurker here for some time now ... I am curious if there is anyone here who has worked on Lisp internals or maybe hacked the GNU Emacs or...
Roshan, That's way beyond me, so far as I can imagine, but I haven't looked at the code. What's your application? I'm curious why you picked the XEmacs GC...
Thomas, ... In case someone on this list is unfamiliar with this: the *emacs editors are written as an underlying Lisp interpreter on top of which the editor...
Sorry, I only know a tiny bit about GCs. I am sure you know about all the free lisps mentioned at http://www.cliki.net/Common%20Lisp%20implementation but that...
... They are the same GC. It was largely written by Hans Boehm and he is the currently active maintainer. He's modest and likes to give credit to all the major...
Ouch! I'm sorry, Thomas ... but I hadn't seen your question. Ranjit answers it though. :) And yes ... we have about a passing familiarity with Lisp (scheme ...
Hi All, I need help in invoking system libraries(DLLs) through lisp.I have searched through the net & found articles & examples on how to do it through...
There *is* a way to do it. However, you are looking for a *nice* way to do it. I believe you are looking for a `foreign function interface (FFI)'. You should...
Guys, I thought you might be interested in the ALU's new mailing list explicitly for local lisp-based technology groups for dealing with items such as...
Greetings fellow Lispers, My first post to the group. This place has been dormant for a while, but it'll be good to know some fellow Indian Lispers. There's...
I'm glad Roshan popped in when I was too busy. There are many threads you can find, especially in c.l.l., about how Lisp sucks. I tried to find some of the...
Er, I deleted *my* post, not anyone else's. ... -- Lisp humour: LISP> (setf god (symbol-value god)) Warning: Declaring GOD special. Error: GOD is unbound....
I tried to post a link to Pascal C.'s posts in c.l.l., but I got the wrong one, so I deleted it. Just be sure to read all the posts in the thread. I think some...
Thanks Tom, Roshan. I've read that thread on c.l.l. But a few things just flew over my head. So I asked here. Anyway, I think you are right Tom - maybe I...
Chaitanya, No computer language is `perfect' for every job, but the essence of Lisp is just so good that it is considered a very important language for a...
Tom, I have given Lisp a try and am loving it. Don't worry, I am not going to get scared and run-off to some other lang. Its only been six months, but I am...
Hi, all. I would like to invite all people interested in Lisp (Common Lisp, Scheme, Emacs Lisp) to Koramangala (Bangalore) or my flat on Sarjapur Road on some...
Hi all, I am trying to install ucw on windows. Does it actually work on windows? I've downloaded the ucw-boxset but that file seems to be corrupt. Plain ...
Chaitanya, Sorry I couldn't answer yesterday. I saw 2 mail messages from you, but my broadband connection was down and couldn't read them. Looks like you might...
