The advantages of ABC are that it is text, there is a large amount of music available written in it and it is a well know standard. There are a large number of utilities available to cross check your newLisp implementation. Further it is typically importable by the big guns, Finale, Sibelius etc. Wh...

There is a standard of sorts for this kind of thing. See: http://www.walshaw.plus.com/abc/

You should put the h in http for the link...

Interesting, I just did a search on the text (from FIrefox) and I couldn't find the word!

Update: Couldn't find it because I didn't spell it correctly!! Typical...

twigil does not appear in the http doc. What are you talking about?

I've never had any problem with car and cdr— in fact given their origins I rather liked the names. Why does every one think they are broken?

Seems from their postings that the real problem that Paul is guilty of is not doing what other people want them to. This un-slave like performance is of course met with name calling in truly adult fashion.

Thanks for the link! Turns out(I think it does) that if you use the 'numeric' version of the ce you want, everything works fine...

What &whatever; are allowed in a post (of course with HTML on)?

Great! Then soon I can bring the Awesome Beauty of Fractals(tm) to newLISP!

How about a piece on copymem and its use for in-line assembler?

Please explain why this or a modification won't work in windows?

p.s. I'm not saying it should, just curious...

Excellent! Not only looks better(at least to my compulsively neat-freak eyes) but works as well!!

Why so you did! Silly me. Do we need an index yet?

And Tuesday's child could be about making non-destructive functions destructive?

Improvement on several fronts; save state seems fixed and the save statement shows up with a semi-colon. That said, some problems remain. Edited buffer work flow: newLISP v.9.3.11 on Win32 IPv4, execute 'newlisp -h' for more info. > (lambda () (set 'ps-template '(("prolog" ("%!PS-Adobe-2.0") ("%%Cre...

This can also happen after executing code that uses println...

Any ideas about the change after clicking in the editor (dirty bit flip)?

p.s. I'd wondered what the keystroke(s) for clear screen were, thanks!

I don't know how easy this will be to duplicate, but I've had to deal with two problems in the editor. 1. use ALT-2 to place cursor in REPL window, then 2. a simple click back in editor window flips the changed status. 3. next, after a save and a switch to the REPL window, hitting return results in:...

The link to prompt-event under Reflection and customization doesn't seem to work. This would be the link in the manual proper, not the sidebar.

Don't quite seem to be there yet: > (setq g '(("tags" ("Event" "Northern Idaho Open")) ("moves" "d4" "f5") ("fen"))) (("tags" ("Event" "Northern Idaho Open")) ("moves" "d4" "f5") ("fen")) > (push "x" g 2 -1) "x" > g (("tags" ("Event" "Northern Idaho Open")) ("moves" "d4" "f5") ("x" "fen")) > (push "...

Ah--- the old copy is not the thing problem ;) Much thanks...

lithper: I await the revisions!! Having said that I wonder about parsing the manual for the existing syntax line? Perhaps not 'BE LIKE VERB...' but timely and only needing update with new manual? Come to think of it, the same function that would parse the manual could also combine your improved tex...

In the entry for pop-assoc the syntax line reads "syntax:(pop(" and should read "syntax:(pop-assoc("

I noticed the absence of push-assoc while wandering through the manual and of course that raised the obvious question. Probably under the heading of "stupid questions", but how do you add to an associative list? I tried what seemed to be the simple approach: > (setq g1 '(("tags" ("Event" "Northern I...

Thanks all. The use of eval means that I can use it either way, as a value for set or setq and as a direct change--- cool!
