No problem! Work and personal stuff have got in the way of my newlisp learning curve for a year or so now (as you can probably tell from the timestamp in the mixer project sources) but I'm getting back into it as of this week :) I still really want to do a small game - perhaps a platform type - with...

If you do a search for SDL on this message board, there's a reference to someone's project using the SDL_mixer, including a music file player. Unfortunately, the site seems to be down, but you might be able to find it in the Google or Wayback Machine cache. That would be mine - it's up again at htt...

newLISP doesn't mind if you use other languages - it will talk to you anyway newLISP: the structure and interpretation of real world applications newLISP: small is beautiful (when it works) newLISP: because context is everything in interpretation <- I'm very proud of this one :] newLISP: because the...

Getting vim to communicate with a newlisp process?

Hi all, I'm trying to duplicate Larry Clapp's rather nice little hack which allows vim to communicate with CL via a pipe - except using newLISP (of course) and a socket connection. Ultimately I want to write a vim plugin that lets you send sexps and buffers to a running newLISP process. So I start u...

SDL mixer for newLISP

Grab it here: http://www.77000rpm.com/newlisp/ There's also a simple example player which will play your MODs/ITs/XMs/WAVs/MP3s/OGGs and whatever other format your copy of SDL_mixer was compiled with :) The player worked first time which was kind of disturbing - that's only ever happened to me with ...

I saw the same exchange by following a link there from reddit titled: Why is Lisp unpopular? Maybe it's a "community" like this. (Read first 10 posts to see what's happening.) Good grief. Newbie asks beginner question and gets trojan in response! Mind you, that just about sums up c.l.l for me. I wo...

Howdy camperman! Welcome to newLISP, the best programming language on earth. :-) Indeed a (load "GL.lsp") is all. Please let me know if you run into trouble, I am happy to help out. Thanks Peter. No problems so far running the demos on your page. The GLU context could be rewritten in newLISP comple...

Thank you Lutz - and thanks very much for the links. I'm a bit confused though. Apparently all I have to do is: (load "GL.lsp") and then call the function like: (GL:glBegin ...) Is that all? No fighting with ASDF? No random segfaults? No different behaviour between Linux and Win32? No compile errors...

Thanks! I have a couple of cross-platform game projects in the pipeline: one needs to be scripted in Lisp and the other will probably (now) be written in newLISP calling the SDL and OpenGL shared libraries. I just googled for "lisp small linux win32 macosx scripting" and the newLISP home page came u...

Hello from a newLISP newbie who's found the holy grail

Hi all, I've been getting thoroughly depressed since discovering Lisp through Paul Graham's essays two years ago and then bumping my head against every single issue that Steve Yegge mentions in his essay here http://tinyurl.com/g95n9 . It has been mortifying to read through say, Norvig and see the s...
