Back online.... 19:59 CET... ;-)

just for the notification to the forum members a.o.

newlisp.org is currently unreachable 19:45 CET 13-Nov-2012...

Course is unknown to me but could be a nfs host issue... waiting for confirmation...

Ah yes ik know that one.. its a plugin for the far commander (russian version of midmight commander ;-) At the time it just did not do what i wanted iy to do..but probably its enhanced meanwhile.. I jumped to an older console program, already used with OS2 for years, Take Command / TCC from JPsoft. ...

Nice initiative (nslookup newlisponrails.com) Sounds better then Ruby on Rails for sure ... ;-)
Ill keep an eye on it...

Thanks for the info... I was already informed it would not be heaven ;-)

Good i didnt try at all... I took the shotcut and rented a cloud server of $9 a month to be able to
access my linux prompt at any time..ofcourse with newlisp on it ;-)

Aaaaa finaly!... thanks lutz! ;-)

read-file, write-file, append-file and delete-file when used with http:// URLs will now return nil under error conditions instead of throwing an error

Again a syntax highlight for newlisp, but this time for a very good text editor! Im working on a snippets collection too..its on its way... ;-) Enjoy.. ; EmEditor Syntax File ; ; To import this file to an existing configuration, select Configuration ; under the Tool menu, select Define Configuration...

Thats funny ;-) I would have expected to see LUA inside newlisp and not the other way around.
But then again ... using the way of the compiler it makes sense ;-)

Yes no problem (theoretically), but you dont want to reinvent the wheel and create a new serial driver on kernel level in newlisp using embeded C or Asm code...

When you have setup the lowlevel tty flowcontrol for the serial device newlisp can talk to the device/file without a problem..

..Ofcourse we do need 2D games... a game is a game and every game is different. You could ask yourself 'why' youre doing it though?.. And then there are ofcourse loads of alternative consoles... Personaly I hate games on a phone, on the Ipad..its more like..Mooaahh... but behind a full console wide-...

Hi Lutz, The problem below looks familiar to me but i cant find/recall the explenation in the manual, perhpas you can clear me up.. I would intepret it as a bug , as its not explained as a feature in the manual. The question is , why doesn't the use of -1 or 'last apply to setq/setf for strings? As ...

Of all options i did not test read-line... how stupid of me ;-) Thanks..

Hi Lutz, ...yes yes i know :-), but my suggestion is more related to newlisp as being a command-line filter and not such as being able to filter, its about 'not' creating a file/script when using newlisp but about using newlisp on the command-line. newlisp has functions that can be used on the regul...

Hi Lutz, is it possible to extend newlisp so that its capable of beeing a 'filter'. So it accepts input during startup. example: echo "(println \"hello newlisp\")" | newlisp -e '(eval $main-args)' I know $main-args wont work here but its just an example. I would like to use newlisp in the command st...

Hi Lutz, Well.. "... When no str-break is given, parse tokenizes according to newLISP's internal parsing rules...." I think.. Im confused here.. Or by a different parser or by an older version of newlisp. ...issue closed for me..sorry for the interruption.. Ill stick a YellowIsh paper right in the m...

Hi Lutz, A pothole for many (at least for me over and over again) is 'parse. ..i lost count.. Quicky parsing a string in newlisp cant be done without regex, or without inteferance of a pre-eval. ( And I believe a language should stay nice to look at ;-) The pre-eval of str-data is something you quic...

Thanks for this fix! I wondered already what it was but you found it, I ran several times into this issue... Ill try it right away ;-) --- The command-event function now trims trailing line-feed characters in all compile and platform flavors. Previously only UNIX and readline lib enabled versions wo...

A correction here to be made alex! It does work!

The .BAT version on my Win7 runs directly into a newlisp prompt but the .CMD works! .. Thanks!

What do i catch here a wikibooks entry on newlisp? Never seen thatone befor? Thanks for the highlight ;-)

Nice catch , I thought i give it a try but on my win7 it jumps right over the newlisp program into the newlisp prompt. I too was this week seeking for a clean execute solution too on windows, as on OS/2 i can use the COMSPEC= that cant be used under windows.. I have seen some perl examples doing the...

Thanks lot Lutz!... ;-)

To all newlisp users and forum member and especialy to Lutz ;-)

Merry Christmas and all the best for 2012!

Yups..works fine on Win7 :-)
Will test debian and slackware next week...

I just want to say "Thanks for all the fun!".. god bless..

Its a very odd year this 2011 where it seems a lot of great sources of mind and being pass away,
in the age of science and computers the heritage is there to be used..


Thanks for the information i realy did miss the news on McCarthy.

I always like the topic on "Text editors" because they are so personal. I always hunt for a good editor too, although i have my fav's already, seeking for the fine editor is a real quest. (Police Quest , King's Quest, Space Quest, are like that too ;-)) I even build my own editor in newlisp on OS/2 ...
