More tweaking of older #Emacs packages, this time slstats.sl: a package for looking up information about the #SecondLife grid.

There's a new Common #Lisp #book.

Modern Common Lisp with FSet

https://fset.common-lisp.dev/Modern-CL/Top_html/index.html

Enjoy!

Thanks for writing this, Scott. https://scottlburson2.blogspot.com/

Scott Burson shared his new book "Modern Common Lisp with FSet", an introduction to functional collections for Lisp programmers and designers of other languages and libraries.

I've just merged an alpha quality SDL2 backend to McCLIM. Includes decently working software renderer, and horribly hacked opengl renderer. Enjoy!

Now proceeding with the documentation before the release.

@sdf can someone validate @artemis .

Oh, wait.
#Xedit for #x11 always had a #Lisp interpreter and even
if it's damn cool to have (much lighter than Emacs and comes
with #NetBSD and #OpenBSD base) it never got updated
for XFT support.

This runs straight:

(defun factorial (n)
(fact-iter 1 1 n))

(defun fact-iter (a b n)
(cond
((> b n) a)
('t
(fact-iter (* a b) (+ b 1) n ))))

(factorial 10)

Press Ctrl-x e to evaluate at the end
of every '()' function.

It will evaluate to 3628800.

Okay. Take McCarthy’s amb operator. Look at quantum decoherence. Is wave function collapse the pruning of amb branches and calling with an earlier continuation so that the overall computation (that is, what appears to be the case at the macroscopic level) evaluates successfully?

So like, yes, rips bong etc and also I know a lot about continuations and fuck all about physics but this seems kinda right to me.

I've just begun a project in #Guile #Scheme, and I'm looking for tooling -- especially documentation tooling. #Clojure has Marginalia and Codox, both of which I like; Common #Lisp has Codex, Coo, Stable, cl-domain and others.

But the only thing I could find for Scheme is SchemeDoc, which is 'NOT MAINTAINED ANY MORE'.

Doxygen does not support Scheme out of the box, nor does Sphinx.

What else should I be looking at?
