Hi, When I do this from the nL command line interpreter: > (println "×tamp") ×tamp "×tamp" All good as expected. When I am running it on a web server cgi script looking at it from my browser, I end up with this result: ×tamp How do I preserve ×tamp if I am making a string, say to...

Re: Forum is back again

Super big thanks to the forum admin!

The forum really propels the adoption of newLISP.

Would there be chance to re-add the Forum link to the nL home page?

It is such a resource, it seems more than worthy. Thanks again admin! :D

get-url works on some sites

Hi, I love get-url and what it makes available for coding! It seems to work on some sites and others not so much. I have never had any issue before with using get-url for http calls. For example, on both nearlyfreespeech.net and my laptop, it hangs on some sites. (get-url "http://newlisp.org") -- wo...

using ref data

The ref and ref-all functions bring back an address or list of addresses. As cormullion wrote in the nL wikibook: (ref-all "Brian Eno" itunes-data) ;-> ((0 2 14 528 6 1) (0 2 16 3186 6 1) (0 2 16 3226 6 1)) What would be the best way to get that data instead of the numerical addresses?

Re: running a nL on nearlyfreespeech

Thank you Lutz!

I replaced the old with the new binary

http://www.newlisp.org/cgi-bin/newlisp

I also am using your

Code: Select all

#!/home/public/cgi-bin/newlisp
Everything worked immediately, and will keep note of your recompile without readline in mind too!

Much appreciated, Lutz!

Think they may have lost support? $ newlisp -bash: newlisp: command not found Just submitted a request w NFS to know if it is still supported. Found that as its been dropped from the bs d port, so no go, only compile from source. https://members.nearlyfreespeech.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=10566&high...

ralph,

thanks for the help!

my nL script file has this already at top:

Code: Select all

#!/usr/bin/env newlisp
I can run it from the command line fine and it does it all.
