Jeremy Dunn started an interesting module to help make regex easier to read in newLISP.

In bind for Manual v.9.4.5 rev-12

The line
"The return value of bind is the value of the last association."
is written twice.

Haha you're absolutely right Michael. newlispdoc devours the original code ||| <!-- NO_ESCAPE attribute removed for jEdit 4.3 --> ||| <SPAN TYPE="LITERAL2"> |||| <BEGIN><?[ (string "[text" "]") ]></BEGIN> |||| <END><?[ (string "[/text" "]") ]></END> ||| </SPAN> and the html is displayed like this. |...

The jEdit syntax generator has been thoroughly updated. Because the syntax is generated, it can automatically add new symbols as newLISP is updated, and it will be perfectly tailored to your newLISP installation (Mac, Linux, Win, OS/2; ASCII, UTF8). http://www.newlisp.org/index.cgi?Code_Contribution...

Ah ok, thanks for the detailed explanations guys. I probably should have mentioned I was just trying to remove symbols out of contexts. Now that I understand better what's going on, I see I could have used workarounds. newLISP v.9.9.94 on Win32 IPv4, execute 'newlisp -h' for more info. > (setf FISH:...

Also note the "setf" in the error. newLISP v.9.9.94 on Win32 IPv4, execu...

Ah newdep! I know my approach wasn't every elegant, but you should warn people before shaming their code to oblivion :)

The (dump)ing of the symbols solves so many problems with preserving the namespace, I'm going to have to follow your superior approach.

Just offhand I think it's due to the new functionality of $idx working in (map) function. When I initially wrote it, I avoided using (dolist) for specifically this reason. In any case, Lutz already uploaded a slightly updated version of the script on newlisp.org. I'm also going to take a closer look...

I can host it here: http://www.newlisp.org/index.cgi?Code_Contributions its currently linked to the wiki, but I could copy it over, if it works on the latest development version of newLISP and works on jEdit. Thanks Lutz. I'll clean it up and test it with the latest and send it to you when I have t...

I used the wiki to host the jEdit newLISP syntax generator because I don't have any particular place to publish such a script. I still use jEdit for any serious newLISP writing so I have a vested interest in ensuring it's updated, but a wiki lets others easily fix errors and upgrade it to new versio...

Hmm, that makes me want to see a random motto from the 101 motto thread every time I load the page :)

A NSFW warning please ;_;

Ahh, I see. I'm not sure where you are selecting the "Create a Shortcut". One possible way is to do something similar to what this link describes http://cyberst0rm.blogspot.com/2007/11/how-to-create-quick-shutdown-shortcut.html You can right-click and select "New->Shortcut" on the desktop, or in any...

what's the easiest, most direct way to start newlisp as a webserver on windows? I got it working, but it wasn't so easy or direct. What is the easiest most direct way to do it on Linux? On both Windows and Linux I just open a terminal window and cd to a directory then run the newlisp command to sta...

Very nice Lutz. Memory management theories and approaches are topics relevant to my interests. Quick typo noticed "Nevertheless, to achieve maximum performance, newLISP has optimized the behavior or many built-in functions by allowing for reference return and allowing other destructive built-in func...

I'm going to venture a guess that you're fairly new to the Microsoft Windows OS. ;) Windows doesn't use the first line of text files to determine the executable that should be run with the script as an argument. But like Linux-like OSs, you can run the script the straight-forward way using the comma...

You can still do that? O_O

Wow...

But shouldn't there be POSIX functions that can modify a file's Last Modified date? I suppose that would be the most cross-platform approach.

If your target is Windows, you could also wield the win32api directly through (import).

Here is a page showing what win32api functions do what (written in Visual Basic).

When you call a C++ instance method, it secretly passes the pointer to the class instance as the first argument. class cls { @public: // like declaring static void callme(cls *this, int i); void callme(int i); }; int main() { cls c; c.callme(10); // actually becomes callme(&c, 10); } I may have some...

winscript v0.22

-Minor documentation improvements.
-Added check at initialization if already initialized.
-Fixed error handling when the error doesn't come from the script control.
-Lots of internal cleaning and commenting.

I assume you can get the pointer to the function, right? So once you have the pointer, you should be able to pass it as an integer to the newLISP.dll. Then using a bit of hackery you can convert that integer to a newLISP function. ; Function to convert a pointer to a function (define (ptr-to-fn ptr ...

Pointed this out before. Maybe it was missed, or not really important.

The description for read-line doesn't explicitly mentioned that it will ever return nil (although the example suggests that it will).

And BTW, I love some of our off-topic conversations. If Whatever Else isn't a good enough category for this sort of thing, then I'll make one up! I like that we have a Windows and *nix sections, but there are many topics/questions that are cross-platform. I've never really felt that the "Whatever E...
