Sorry. Yes, closed source is what I mean.

I guess no change in the licensing, any commercial software is still prohibited by the licensing of NewLISP?

Jeremy

Has any more thought went into this? I have enjoyed toying with newLisp, but cannot consider it a language for me to use because of the licensing restrictions. If I spend time developing something, I would want the freedom to do with it as I wish, without all kinds of hoops to jump through.

Jeremy

Lutz, are you saying then, that it is against the license to distribute a closed source commercial app with newlisp?

Jeremy

Is something like this possible? (define (create-greeter greeting) (lambda (n) (println greeting " " n "!"))) (set 'hello-greeter (create-greeter "Hello")) (set 'goodbye-greeter (create-greeter "Goodbye")) (hello-greeter "World") (goodbye-greeter "World") The obvious desired output is: Hello World G...

I have the following function: (define (rowAsHash res idx) (set 'h '()) (dotimes (fidx (fieldCount res)) (push (list (sym (fieldName res fidx)) (value res idx fidx)) h)) h) fieldName returns a string. value returns the contents of the particular row/field index combo. Basically, I do: (pg:query db "...

I have created pgsql.lsp that accesses PostgreSQL from newLISP. I am planning on doing some more work on it this weekend. I have not officially released the code, but I would like if those interested would review the code and offer any suggestions. I am a new newLISP programmer and in many ways, a n...

Ok, I figured out this to make things work, but not sure if it's the right or best or even only way to do it:

I have the follow function: (define (seg-name seg val) (if val (nth-set 0 seg val)) (seg 0)) I want to be able to: (set 'seg '("NM1" "85" "DEF")) (println (seg-name seg)) ;; "NM1" (seg-name seg "HL2") (println (seg-name seg)) ;; "HL2" ---- that's what I want (println (seg-name seg)) ;; "NM1" ---- is...

Hm, my code was incorrect above. I simplified:
Right now the output is:

How can I: (define (greet who) (print "Hello " who)) (set 'lst '((name "John" who) (age 10))) ((lst 0 2) (lst 0 1)) In other words, reference a dynamic function inside a quoted list. The real reason for this is a process I created for parsing fixed width files: (define (special-conversion-function s...

I am assuming yes, I have a wiki, plane and pic of me :-) Well, sorta. I don't own that plane, but the glider club I use to belong to owns it and it's the one I solo'd in.

Hm. Your right. I guess I was thinking newlisp-tk was a binary that had to be compiled. I didn't see it scroll by, so I figured it was not building it. My bad.

Thanks for walking me through it, sorry to waste your time.

I thought the OSX installer was PPC? I'm on an intel mac.

How do I do this? ./configure && make does not seem to do the trick for me.

How can I import and use: int template_parse_string(context_p ctx, char *template_filename, char **output); ??? I know how to import and use C functions, but this one in particular is giving me problems with the char ** output parameter. This is a pointer to a string pointer. It's not an array of st...

In my time of looking at different languages, one Scheme version had a SQL query generation package that I thought made working with SQL easier. For instance: (sql:select '(a.name a.age b.date) '((as a person) (as b dobs)) '((= a.id b.id))) I was thinking of making something similar in newLISP, but ...

If you've never done IRC, download an IRC client for your computer, type in irc.freenode.net as the server, and then join the channel #newlisp .. normally by typing /join #newlisp

I'm there hanging out.

Jeremy

Yeah, on IRC, I should have said:

irc.freenode.net#newlisp

IRC can be pretty nice for focused groups, such as newLisp.

Jeremy

Anyone use it any more? #newlisp's topic still says latest release 8.7.0. I've visited it the last few days and only me and ChanServ were there... ChanServ isn't much for company :-/

I am looking for easy access to small XML files. I came up with the following... Being new to newLISP and Lisp in general, I am sure someone can make the function a bit nicer. Just seems kind of, I don't know, kludgey? Any criticism would be appriciated. Does anyone have better methods at easy acces...

By the way, if it's only 500K, it could be worth doing it in one go: (set 'f (parse (read-file "/Users/me/Desktop/data.txt") "~")) Should only take a second or so...

Tps: in the future move this type of questions to the "newLISP for Win" or "newLISP for Unix" topic. We use the "news" topic for news and everything related to documentation. I was confused about that. The topic description for newLISP newS says: "News, releases, newLISP talk in general." .. The "n...

I have an app that I will separate into many source files (20 or so). How do you deal with load? I believe this is the only way to include multiple source files in a given program? The problem is complicated further by multiple machines that the code is run on. i.e. (load "/Users/jeremy/lisp/filea.l...
