I was never happy with the packaged Picolisp version being so much behind the official one. Is it much of a problem to provide .deb installers on the official site (for Debian and *buntu distros)?
Or, an universal binary that checks all the required dependencies and compiles the latest version? Simply something easy for people who are not yet quite comfortable with compiling... --- Sent from mobile phone On Feb 3, 2017 08:57, "Alexander Burger" <a...@software-lab.de> wrote: > Hi all, > > the future of PicoLisp is dark.
