Anyone read this before? http://landoflisp.com/
Scroll down to the comic strip at the bottom of that page ... it's funny ... in a sad sense
Hey irneb,
I've ordered the book from amazon.de and it arrived yesterday.
Think it's a good book.
Although it's meant for beginners, it covers quite a number of more advanced topics.
Well written. Just the right amount of simplification, no baby talk. Good explanations.
Puts a lot of stress on precisely those topics which make lisp special & different.
Best to use it together with a more formal text like "Common Lisp The Language".
Another thing. I've been downloading and testing lisp development systems.
I kept the express versions of both Allegro CL and LispWorks. Their ide's are just acceptable.
All the rest were fossils compared to which the Visual Lisp ide is a gem
For example, I'm using an azerty keyboard and clisp.exe didn't even recognize it: all my function
keys and other special keys like ins, del etc... returned gibberish.
Greetings,
have a nice one.
