but that program does exist already and is called Emacs, right?
I'm writing this email in Emacs instance
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(emacs-pid)
#+END_SRC
#+results:
: 275
but external program PicoLisp can use another Emacs instance as
standalone program to execute Emacs Lisp (and thus all of Org-mode's
functionality):
#+BEGIN_SRC picolisp :results pp
(de emx (Exe . @)
(in
(list 'emacs "--no-site-file" "--batch"
(extract
'((X)
(cond
((num? (car (info X)))
(pack "--load=" X) )
((= `(char "(") (char X))
(pack "--eval=" X) ) ) )
(rest) ) )
(eval Exe) ) )
(emx '(read) "(princ (emacs-pid))")
#+END_SRC
#+results:
: 1388
Instead of (princ (emacs-pid)) you could just as well load org-mode and
then call (org-element-parse-buffer ...) or whatever.
PicoLisp is no editor, and there is no editor written in this
language, but assume Java or JS programs can do the same - how would
that help editing Org-mode syntax in editors that are written in that
languages?
Just curious, I would like to find a way to make editing Org syntax
easier for the masses (of non Emacs users).
