ok, I still would welcome improvements, but I just found an easy solution to the punctuation problem: put punctuation characters in the expression! Ta daaa, one problem solved.

oh, here's the uglier one with the flubber. #!/usr/bin/newlisp (change-dir (real-path)) (set 'the-args (join (rest (rest (main-args))) " ") 'a (read-file the-args) ;'a1 (append the-args "-original") 'a2 (append the-args "-bracketed-nomarkup") 'a3 (append the-args "-markup") 'aa "" 'b (parse a {\[[0-...

Hey cormullion, grepper slipped past me--looks good! Your example matched everything, though. Hans-Peter, thanks, yours did the trick. I added a character class for line-breaks and then got a script working. After I started using my script, though, I discovered that I also need one for punctuation, ...

Well, I'd like to revisit the editing-via-brackets thing. So, to begin with, may I please have a regular expression that matches three sets of brackets, empty or full?

[][][]

or

[stuff] [and] [junk]

or any combination imaginable.

Thank you. (stupid regex!)

may I have one? I use newlisp all the time to interact with other applications, say, to open an editor with a newlisp-generated file--I'd like to see if the editor is already running with said file open, and if it is, do nothing, or rerun my script, etc. I can do this in an awkward way by calling ps...

Hey guys, recently, I started playing with org-mode for emacs (http://orgmode.org). From the homepage: Org-mode is for keeping notes, maintaining ToDo lists, doing project planning, and authoring with a fast and effective plain-text system. What I thought might be of interest to you guys is org-babe...

centos may have newlisp in its repositories, but I would go ahead and compile it manually, myself.

Anyway, guys thank you for replies and explanations. Although I would like the author himself participated this tiny discussion, looks like he nicely ignored all of this. Who knows, maybe this bug (as it obviously is) is not worth of any discussion, because it's solution probably does not fit into ...

I don't have a pdf, but how about the html?

No need to apologize--your input was welcome and helpful, and I was joking about documentation. :-)

Yep. seems counterintuitive. I did notice the (exit) bit--in my example it was commented out, I think. I was confused because I never told newlisp to read anything. Just of the top of my head, it seems like the argument should have been treated as though it was "bob," or anything else. It just happe...

peanut gallery here. all of that sounds very cool and useful to me. :-)

go.lsp ... a.txt ... b.txt ... $ ./go.lsp a.txt
newLISP v.10.2.1 64-bit on Linux IPv4 UTF-8, execute 'newlisp -h' for more info.

> b
"a.txt"

$ ./go.lsp b.txt

ERR: invalid function : (hello)

Thanks guys, that did the trick. originally, the tags were ",1," and I changed them to "1=". I changed them back. :-)

hmm, some wild code there. Edit: I think I see what you're doing now. It's doing 12 for me. Because the length is 12... ? yeah, pretty wild. I often hesitate to "show off" just because it's so dang ugly... I get 12 replacements but only 10 correct replacements. For 11 and up it replaces from somewh...

Hi guys, this thing I have more or less working only correctly makes ten replacements. can you see what's wrong? the newlisp #!/usr/bin/newlisp (set 'written '((1 "1=" "one") (2 "2=" "two") (3 "3=" "three") (4 "4=" "four") (5 "5=" "five") (6 "6=" "six") (7 "7=" "seven") (8 "8=" "eight") (9 "9=" "nin...

Yep, I think so, thanks. I think it was "sym" that I was missing.

I need to memorize all the functions, I guess, because when I need them I either can't remember them or can't find them.

Hey guys, given this: (define (c cc)(setf (eval (cc 0)) (cons (cc 1) '()))) I get this: ERR: no symbol reference found I see in the manual that this is normal, but I'd like to find an alternative way of making ("this" "that") into something that results from something like (set 'this "that") let me ...

Hmm a bit too vague there] sorry about that. ,1, Heading ,2, paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph ,3, listitem ,4, listitem ,5, nested listitem ,6, paragraph paragraph paragraph paragrap...

Howdy guys, I want to label a text file with something like, ",1," ",2," etc, and copy what follows the 1 to what precedes the 2, etc, then stick it into corresponding spot in a template. There are regular expressions and junk in there I'm not too comfortable with, so I thought I'd rather ask than s...

hey ryon,

I did finally remember my own address, but when the forum sent me a new password, I never received it.

really, it's ok; this username is fine.
