Understood. Apparently it was not my filter, just Saveing the default settings has resulted my receipt of notifications .... thanks

Thanks Ryon, I'll follow your instructions. Also, could you tell me what the exact email address of the notification is? I may very well have a filter that is catching it in error and rerouting it. Edited : I checked the default settings for Edit Posting Results and replies were enabled by default. ...

Good to hear from everyone. Surprising tidbit about autolisp! Bye the way, I have not got any notifications about replies to this thread. I have checked "Notify me when a reply is posted" under options. Email address as stored in my User Control Panel is current. Is there anything else that I need t...

I just came across the thread about the Eric Raymond blog. Since it dates back to June 2014 - I thought I would start another one. I found blog very interesting, with the some smug pushback, but not nearly as virulent as pushback I've seen on Common Lisp venues years past. I would note that at one t...

Since it has been several years since I last posted regarding Hostmonster, I want to say that I have
moved all of my domains to hostmonster and I haven't been able to think of anything bad about them at all. Their tech support is spot on and they have turned out to be very reliable.

Time didn't permit me to read this thread thoroughly, but I use both vim and emacs and have done considerable scripting for each. If you use linux (and I presume that you may do the same on OS X), in vim you can 1)Grab some text in visual mode 2)Feed it to a temporary file 3)Evaluate the temporary f...

Michael, I've never used setf like that. The docs say

setf is used when setting list or array references

but I see from my own console: Curiouser and curiouser

I don't understand, why "but"? His test code shows it's better to use one call.

Oh for Pete's Sake, you're right, my brain has been AWOL these couple of days!
I misread the results.
thanks
tim

The idea of using one call to set with multiple symbol/value pairs versus multiple calls to set with just one symbol/value pair for each call appeals to my aversion to redundancy. but michael makes a compelling case in the test code that he posted. I should have some time in the next few days to run...

I'll buy that one. I wonder if differences would change with more complex data types?
thanks
tim

Also, why use multiple calls to 'set when one will do?
cheers

I have the following " .vimrc autocmd BufNewFile,BufRead *.lsp set filetype=newlisp autocmd BufRead,BufNewFile *.lsp setlocal shiftwidth=2 tabstop=2 I put newlisp.vim in my ~/.vim/syntax directory I also put my own auxiliary newlisp.vim in ~/.vim/after/syntax In there I put stuff like highlighting f...

And we use 'slice as in Implicit indexing is great feature. I might add to the documentation of
this subject something of the subject here.

I.E. use of symbols, etc.

:)But then, I'm a real noob when it comes to the functional programming paradigm.

Sure does. 'map threw me for a bit of a loop because generates an error.
thanks.

So how may I 'bind' the values in 'ndxs to the implicit indexing of 'record? I'm hoping there ...

Of the two other members of my family that are programmers, they are both java programmers. One of them full-time, the other splits her time about 60-40 between java and php. I don't like java, and it is as verbose as C, which I used for 12 years, even for CGI programming. I would hate to have to le...

No sure what you mean. In the following smaller example you can see 'outer-var' recognized: Note that I placed the define for 'typeHander inside of the context. I moved the define outside of the context and now the hash functions have context scope. I.E. It appears that the context members are now ...

I have a solution, but don't fully understand the issue: I've set up a typehandler/callback using a hash with functions as in (define typeHandler:typeHandler) (typeHandler "text" (fn (fl val ndxs DS DSndx) (letn((ndx (ndxs 0))(ele (fl ndx)) (attrs(set-attr (list "value" val)(ele 2 1)))) (setf (DS DS...

I think that your method will make modification easier also.
Thanks very much Lutz.
I hadn't even considered hashes.

And one more step, factoring out 'list calls by using eval in the dispatcher: (set 'callback-list '(("int" (fn(arg1 arg2) (println "heellllooo from the 'int handler") (println arg1 " " arg2))) ("text" (fn(arg1 arg2) (println "heellllooo from the 'text handler") (println arg1 " " arg2))))) (define (d...

I suspect that part of the silence is to do with the fact that topics in this forum don't appear in the RSS feed or the Active topics list. I only noticed it because I happened to look at the Dragonfly section after seeing a tweet... Why is that? Is there something in my settings configuration that...

Hey, I like your approach. And taking it one step further using 'fn : (set 'funcs (list (list "int" (fn(arg1 arg2)(println "DO-INT - arg1: " arg1 " arg2: " arg2))) (list "text" (fn(arg1 arg2)(println "DO-TEXT - arg1: " arg1 " arg2: " arg2))))) (define (f key) (lookup key funcs)) ((f "text") "one" "t...

In python I'm used to doing something like this: funcs = {"one":func1,"two":func2} ## etc ## Called as: funcs[task](arg1 arg2) I did this in newlisp: (set 'funcs '(("int" do-int)("text" do-text))) (define (do-int arg1 arg2) (println "DO-INT - arg1: " arg1 " arg2: " arg2) ) (define (do-text arg1 arg2...
