ideas for pilBox apps?

[Rudy Hagedorn]

@Alex: I am interested in DES! 

Potential Apps for PilBox (@Mia):

   - basic calendar plus alarms/reminders,
   - Quick Notes (like Google Keep),
   - a flexible journaling tool like TiddlyWiki 
   would be great ;)


On the "gamy" side: has someone looked into storytelling RPG Games like "A
Quiet Year " or "Alone Among The Stars
"?

 Hi All,

 I added a wiki article that includes some basic analysis of the Rosetta
 Code solutions. At several points I've tried to memorize the usage of all
 the PicoLisp functions. I'm getting closer to retaining it, however I may
 use this list as a way to prioritize my learning.

 I considered hyperlinking to the relevant reference for the function page
 but didn't have the time to include that - specifically due to things like
 the Globals. The alpha ones are pretty straightforward to map.  I may
 update the article in the future with the links.

 I'm sharing in case others find it useful / interesting

Re: PicoLisp is DEAD (Was: PicoLisp and its (lack of) libraries)

[Rudy Hagedorn]

Hello.

I am new to PL.

I come from trying out lots of library paradises where you need to load
100MB of background noise into RAM to print 'hello world' on the screen.

My aim is to learn and use lisp for smart  small data base driven
applications within a little browser window.

Yesterday I started with the excellent App Tutorial by Alexander Burger and
had 2 terminal windows open, one with w3m -  it works :-)
And I was able to scroll through all the libs and .l files and with a
little effort follow what was going on and why it was happening.
Man, was I happy.

Not sure if this helps - but I wanted to avoid to be 'silent' ;-)

By the way, anyone using PL for graphDB similar tasks?

Best,
Rudy

 OK, I understand.

 The language is not useful or usable, and the Community (I count 70
 members in this list) is silent.
