Is there a way, to make the code below works, the first time 'foo' is defined?
: foo
-> NIL
: (mydefs (+ 1 (foo 3 4))) # should returns 20

That works, thanks.

It's good that it is on your todo list, so we (PicoLisp users) can use
PicoLisp at its full power!
Is PicoLisp64 just a 64-bit version of PicoLisp? Or it will have
more/different features? (I would request floating-point support ;-)
Best regards,
