[Robert Uhl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>] | | Agreed. Stallman got sidetracked by Scheme, which IMHO was a | dead-end.
too many people buying SICP and believing what they heard about it being an important book. I too spent some time exploring Scheme, or should I say, wasted some time, years ago, and nothing came of it other than a profound irritation. these people seemed to be completely disconnected from reality. Scheme, and thus Guile, might have been a viable path if these people had only been practical instead of stubbornly insisting on being odd. | A Common Lisp emacs would be pretty sweet. There's a Climacs project, | but they're just focused on providing an editor, not on providing a | full-fledged emacs. if nothing else, a proper Emacs in Common Lisp might give me a reason to learn Lisp properly. -Bjørn -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
