BTW It would be nice to have even one more PicoLisp mode for Emacs! There is this new concept of LSP out there now (Language Server Protocol), with the basic idea that every language implements the server side once, and every editor implements the client side once (in a generic way). Then, a new editor mode for a language is just an adoption of the LSP client of that editior for that specific language. And every editor with an LSP client implementaton can easily offer a mode for a language that has its LSP server implementation. >From a PicoLisp point of view there are two pretty cool options here, I think: 1. implement a Picolisp LSP Server implementation, enabling all those editors out there to have their LSP PicoLisp modes (Emacs e.g. already has two competing LSP client implementations and several new or rewritten LSP major modes afaik) 2. implement a Vip LSP Client, thereby enabling language modes in Vip for all that (growing numbers) of languages with LSP server implemenations. This is from Microsoft, but not evil at all, rather seems like the future of editing modes. Maybe somebody finds this interesting too ... ;-) -- cheers, Thorsten -- UNSUBSCRIBE: mailto:picolisp@software-lab.de?subject=Unsubscribe
