Hi Alex, 1) root mode was because I tried a lot of different things, but missed the obvious family64.tgz 😡 2) had a few problems with cd-ing into folders, because under Windows it is a bit different
So, after unpacking family64.tgz into a local folder in my home dir everything works great! Now starting to really learn the PicoLisp language better. @Joe could you show me an example where db locking didn't work? Maybe I can test this and see if it does work correctly in the way I now set up PicoLisp in WSL? Thx. again! /Arie 2018-04-18 11:50 GMT+02:00 Alexander Burger <a...@software-lab.de>: > Hi Arie, > > > * root@HP-Arie:/usr/share/doc/picolisp/doc# **pil family.l -main -go > +* > > ... > > *!?
