Welcome to newLISP and the group Kazimir. Just read your first blog entry about newLISP. Thanks for setting the record straight about macros in newLISP and for pointing out the first-class nature of functions and macro-functions in newLISP and the nature of 'eval'. There are two functions in newLISP, which relate to the macro discussion:
the 'letex' function:

the 'expand' function:
http://newlisp.org/download/development ... tml#expand
the links are to a newer cleaned up version of the manual, but these two functions work identical in the official release 9.3.0

Hi Kazimir! Nice blog, nice first post, and I look forward to reading your 101st post... (Actually, the 10th post is the hardest one... :) Your enthusiasm for newLISP and your knowledge of Common Lisp and Scheme should make for some interesting posts.
I'll add your name to the list of distinguished newLISP bloggers on mine!

One thing I perhaps should say as a new user in a relatively small community is that I do not expect any backward compatibility in the future, i.e. if author (or community) see an opportunity to improve the language, libraries breaking that compatibility, excellent, I'll adapt. Maybe it is already your policy, but I had to support the case.

Another post, not that interesting for experienced Newlispers. Someone said on comp.lang.lisp that it would be nice that Newlisp can check whether someone supplied extra arguments to function. My last post "Challenged by CL" was strangely popular (200+ visits in one day, several times more than my record) and few people voted for it ( http://www.reddit.com/r/lisp/ )

@cormullion, was that "looking for an argument" in reference to "check whether someone supplied extra arguments to function", or meant being argumentative?cormullion wrote: there are a lot of CL-ers looking for an argument, it seems.
...it is better to first strive for clarity and correctness and to make programs efficient only if really needed.
