Newlisp

1 pointsby bocajuniorsover 17 years ago
how come the reception for newlisp is so cold(silence) in this communty?is it for the same type of reasons that the french refuses to reform their spelling or are their any "real" reasons?

Here's a quote from the "about" page on their website:<p>"newLISP is a scripting LISP for people who are fascinated by LISP's beauty and power of expression, but who need it stripped down to easy-to-learn essentials."<p>A stripped-down Lisp? What's missing? I have no idea, but that doesn't inspire me to take the time to learn newLisp, when I'm already a user of Common Lisp and Scheme.<p>That said, I have nothing against newLisp. I just don't know it, and thus don't talk about it. I advocate neither for nor against it.

Why do you think the french refuse to reform their spelling? Why did you pick the french? Is there something french about hackers on news.yc?
