@Pixel_Outlaw CL:IF just has (CL:IF TEST TEST-TRUE TEST-FALSE) but in Interlisp you use 'then' and 'else' and 'elseif': (IF (ZEROP Z) THEN (CHARACTER 0) ELSE TX)

@Pixel_Outlaw For most error corrections, DWIM asks the user if you want the error corrected. If you reply No, you'll get an error signal, and you can choose a different way of resolving the error.

@Pixel_Outlaw @masinter be sure to load the compiled versions (.DFASL or .LCOM). "See" in the filebrowser on the .TEDIT files for documentation.

@Pixel_Outlaw The problem wasn't DWIM. The problem is that IL:* (asterisk in the Interlisp package) functions as a comment. You want CL:* or (not exactly the same) IL:TIMES. Setting DWIMFLG to NIL probably deserves a warning.

@masinter What's fun and rewarding is to recreate the experience of what it was like ... not just words. If you want to try NoteCards, go to online.interlisp.org (or notecards.online) -- to log in as guest shouldn't take more than a minute or two--more to read the online docs.

@luksamuk @clynbech We'd like some way to treat Medley as a server by firing up a prepared VM, using it to process some stuff (convert Lisp sources or TEdit files to Postscript, for example) and then shutting down. Is that something Kubernetes could help with?

@stylewarning An alternative, which some people might be considering, is editing code in the Lisp image itself, and then either dumping that code to files or saving the image. This would be more like Interlisp did it.

I am genuinely astonished somebody writes "a good amount of [Common Lisp]" but finds REPLs "pretty useless" and doesn't get "what value they bring." Different strokes, I guess. Interactive development and immediate feedback, to me, is like Lisp's biggest selling point.

@amszmidt @_wilfredh Interlisp in its BBN Lisp iteration (1969) had no macros, so that's already more than 'none'. Franz, *Lisp, PSL weren't a thing until 1980s.

Are there any noteworthy lisp dialects that don't have macros? Macros aren't obligatory, but I'm struggling to think of any good lisp examples that lack them.

@ShriramKMurthi @neeldhara @rsms @keyboardmaestro Rooms. Multiple desktops but a window can appear on more than one desktop - different positions on each one. I think I had to give a presentation on this as a grad student. From Interlisp.

Are you a computer software professional and unhappy with your workstation OS? If a brand new OS shipped tomorrow, what about it would make you excited?
