A PicoLisp native library tutorial

Hi list, Some of you might know me from IRC @aw-Unscramble. I've written my first PicoLisp library, a native C binding for Nanomsg (picolisp-nanomsg) - as an experiment for myself to learn this language. In doing so, I ran into a few difficulties (mostly noob stuff) but Regenaxer has been very h

Yet another JSON lib, and a tutorial

Hi list, I've written yet another JSON encoder/decoder for PicoLisp. I know, they already exist.. This library is using a native C library for JSON parsing, so it's a bit different. Of course, I've written a tutorial which explains a few more concepts I learned (Thanks Mr. Burger). https://gi
