Topic: Function definition..

[Andrea]

Hi all..

I would like to know if there is any reference list about the LISP function name.

ex:
SSGET = Suggested Selection GET ?

[MP]

selection set get

but other than the lisp reference no (most can be deducted me thinks)

Cornbread found this link that explains at least two function names that i guess wouldn't be deduced...at least I wouldnt have gotten it without reading up on it.

That was an interesting read.

I liked it too.
I thought it was really cool when "Steve Russell" joined the discussion.

It made me realize just how far back this coding language really goes. Vaccuum Tubes?! Holy carp!

I always thought it fun lisp was born the same year I was (I believe lisp research started in 1955 the language was officially born in 1958).

Crap, we're old.
