A recent mail to Abu, posted here on Abu's advise.
Dear Abu,
I must thank you that PicoLisp exists to SOS: Save Our Souls!
* Some Points
+ Recursive acronym
- Like GNU: GNU is Not Unix.
- Pico is Lisp Integration|Integrated System for Programs|Programming.
+ What Lisp brought to
In Simple Canvas Drawing: A Minimal Example
# /usr/lib/picolisp/bin/httpGate 80 8080

Dear Abu,
Thanks! Now it works.
1. Why only deb package is guaranteed to work in contrast to others, say plain
tar.gz? Should they not all be same? And if there are official differences then
they could be documented along with additional installation steps like (cd src;
make gate).
2. I saw
Attempting to get random plot from local machine itself!
To get any thing in browser:
Had to comment out
# (de go ()
# (server 8080 !zappel) )
and add
(server 8080 !zappel)
Result: Partial success!
Got the box, buttons but no middle red line and no random running plot!
Instead got this
Dear List,
RnRS for picoLisp will help immensely.
Even in documentation, perfection is achieved with irreducibility.

Alabhya
The layout of RnRS has Contents categories, BNF, Program structure, Formal
syntax and semantics etc to give a succinct outline.
PicoLisp docs need reorganization to be in RnRS type standard form of
documentation. This will help users.

1. I am already on job!
Have converted, by hand, most of docs into orgmode.org format.
In this process discovered missing RnRS type doc.
Alas! Only an expert can write it.
2. Will appreciate if I get in pure ASCII or org form the following books
suggested by you.
(i) PicoLisp-Works
(ii)
To be able to use a language with utmost confidence one should be able to
understand its implementation so much so as to be able to implement it and
maintain it.
This I am saying from my experience in maintaining my Porteus Linux system.
PicoLisp matches Porteus in many ways, minimalist, easy
Thanks Henrik.
May be because pil32 and C are simpler than pil64 and assembly respectively.
resources on C plus getting
to know C better might have higher utility than assembly.

I support Henrik and even would request the docs to be available in universal
and simple formats:
1. Text
2. Orgmode
3. HTML
Thanks a lot! Thorsten Jolitz for detailed informative help.

1. Orgmode format can be the base format for documentation sources.
Even vim has support for .org files.
2. Faced with slow internet, difficulty to get pandoc installed on Porteus
Linux.
I have converted the two books on picoLisp, by hand to .org (opened in pdf
viewer, select all, copy, paste
Hi Jolitz
Nice to see Emacs expert enthusiasm here!
Will definitely give a try to helm. Thanks.
Sure! Please send the files as
PM attachment at alab...@yahoo.com
Will send then back in Orgmode format.
Alabhya
Thanks a lot Alex.
PicoLisp already has everything except ease of learning!
Congratulations to both of you on this important feat!
Funds should flow in when picoLisp OS is seen running with all virtues, on
existing hardware.
Looking for introductory level material on this to present to educational
institutions, for them to realize value of this project.
Both Jakob and Alex are right!
1. PicoLisp has to infiltrate existing real metal hardware to
demonstrate/appeal to less techy, in general people with VC.
2. Comparative benchmarks on same underlying hardware will be helpful to
showcase.
