Hi Radek, I'm happy the blog helps you! I agree with you that it's hard to find the "important" functions in the beginning. I was very glad when I found the quantitative "Rosetta Code Analysis", I don't know who did it but it was really helpful. Regarding your documentation proposal with the

Hi, I consider myself beginer. I like your blog (have i read it sooner, i would save my time). PilCon afterthoughts: as beginer I face problem of too big search space for possible answers. I think that your top-down clarification proposal is aimed at that. 60 beginer functions from your blog

Hi Jean-Christophe, If you succeeded to install pil21 on macOS and want the latest and greatest, you can ignore my fork entirely. I loosely track picoLisp v21 features on my fork, which only needs a C compiler to compile and can bootstrap pil21. Regards, pahihu > On 2021. Sep 5., at 8:18,

Hi Jean-Cristophe, I’ve built pil21 on macOS 10.14: 1) I use MacPorts, installed mp-llvm-10, readline, libffi, and openssl packages. Run ‘port select —set llvm mp-llvm-10’ to use the MacPorts version of LLVM. 2) I’ve modified the latest pil21 Makefile in the src directory: # 19aug21

Hello all, The installation procedure that says "macos is ok" seems misleading. https://picolisp-blog.hashnode.dev/how-to-install-picolisp I've followed the instruction here: https://git.envs.net/mpech/pil21/src/branch/master/INSTALL And obviously I can't install the Debian dev libraries. I

Hi Nehal, thanks a lot for your feedback! You were right about the third post, this was one of the first ones I wrote, and I agree that the flow was not good... I have shortened the second part, I think its a little bit better now. Maybe I will fully take it out of the "beginner's" course later.

Hi Mia, Thanks for posting here and starting this blog. There are a total of three blogs at the moment. Last one I feel could be further simplified, it's great effort by you. The flow and flair make it all the more interesting to read posts in one go! I loved the first article. Thanks again.
