Re: httpGate for non-picolisp apps

Hi Alex and Davide, thanks for the reply > I suspect other apps cannot handle this. i thought this was probably the case. just wondered if someone out there may have tried and come up with a solution already :) - Grant -- UNSUBSCRIBE: mailto:picolisp@software-lab.de?subject=Unsubscribe

httpGate for non-picolisp apps

Can httpGate be used as a reverse proxy for other web applications that don't happen to be PicoLisp? I like how simple it is compared to the other servers I've tried to configure. Thanks! Grant

Re: PilCon 2020

I attended the LibrePlanet conference virually, and they did use Jitsi for presenters and moderators, but the video was re-streamed to attendees with Icecast/gstreamer. There's a short article here https://www.fsf.org/blogs/community/how-to-livestream-a-conference-in-just-under-a-week with

Re: plisp-mode on melpa

Maybe this is better as repo issues, but isn't it partially due to the conflict with the other inferior picolisp mode? Maybe want to double check that the defcustoms don't have a name clash :) Sent from ProtonMail mobile Original Message On Apr 25, 2020, 8:43 PM, Alexis

Re: Trouble with a sample

Hi CK, I played around with the example for a bit and think maybe with Alex's advice have gotten something working as you were expecting: https://gist.github.com/gcentauri/cf28da3988ae2d53937ca69c79d3b1de This moves the call to `pool` into the `main` initialization function, and assumes we're

Re: extra + character showing in gui textfield

Thanks Alex. Using a NumField does indeed fix it. Considering that I want to display a message like "You cheated!" as well if the user clicks too many times, would I just use a different gui component then? I was trying a pretty naive wrapping of the repl interface to make the gui and thought I

extra + character showing in gui textfield

Hello all, I'm trying to make a very simple tutorial stepping through elements of PicoLisp. there's a little guessing game first in the repl, and now i'm trying to add the gui. It works fine, except there is suddenly an extra "+" character after clicking a button for the second time. Any

Re: VIP Auto-Load and ASCII Diagrams

Hi All, I played around with this for a while, and really enjoy the ability to draw arbitrary structures with `cells`. i wondered if this drawing library only works for Vip? I like using it, but i'm too stuck in my emacs ways (and the other modal key map i use). I'd like to be able to hook

rolling release process

Hi everyone. I'd like to switch to the rolling release edition, can you recommend the best way to update? I assume i can just pull the archive, unzip, rebuild and replace my picoLisp directory, and all the links will work. but what if i have installed other libraries in that directory? Is

Yet Another Emacs PicoLisp Mode - hybrid

Hello list, I am a long time Emacs user, and currently a Spacemacs user as well. Spacemacs is lacking a configuration layer for PicoLisp and I decided to go ahead and put one together. While doing so, I was trying to decide which version of `picolisp-mode` to use. I've tried the packaged .el

Re: cloud host for picolisp

I just built PicoLisp on a digital ocean instance very easily, lowest price for a server instance is $5 a month on there. Not aware of anything that provides pre-installed PicoLisp. Sent from ProtonMail mobile Original Message On Jun 10, 2019, 1:36 PM, Derenik Mikaelyan

update httpGate docs?

Hello! I was just setting up httpGate on Debian and wanted to point out that the `openssl-dev` package is now `libssl-dev`. This page isn't part of the wiki, and I'm not sure how to make a change myself :) -grant Sent from ProtonMail mobile

Re: Subscribe

Hi, welcome! I meant to write sooner, but just remembered. I just joined the list recently as well, I'm curious about your paid Racket work. I owe my knowledge of programming from Racket and the text How to Design Programs. I'd be interested in hearing about Racket (or PicoLisp) in production.
