Nice! Dreaming about diving into new : semantic. BTW, int but integer? looks confusing to me. Is this intentional?

I went back and forth on this for the last 2 years. The long writing has been out of the docs for some time. One of the reasons for shortening to 'int' is, that it is extensively used by many in modules importing from C-libraries as a cast to make sure that values are passed as integers when they come in as floats.

The long version still works, but I am constantly trying to keep things as slim as possible. For the same reason 'sym' was shortened from 'symbol' two years ago.

ps: thanks for the new newlisp.vim version, it didn't make it into 9.2.5, but it is updated on the site, now with the vim.org link.

I am not about lengthening int or sym, I am about shortening integer? and symbol? ;-)

Oh, that's good. No more boring of keeping three different locations in synch. And the official Vim site is more reliable than my friend's home server where I am hosting my home page. BTW, even newer version 1.3 is done!
