I'll keep you posted, thanks. I did venture into Lua for a very little
while, and I came away thinking I would just do it in C at a certain point,
or python, since it is more ubiquitous. I am now looking at PicoLisp for
livecoding too, not just gaming.

You are welcome to. I have been exploring Lua lately and have been longing to
do some PicoLisp again. Lua is nice but it ain't no Lisp. :)

I might take you up on that, Jakob! At the moment, I am exploring options
regardless of the game jam. I would think it were easy to wrap SDL2, since
another person I know wrapped a few functions from SDL to compile under ECL
for a Ludum Dare Game Jam. I don't know enough of miniPicoLisp. I thought
IMHO it should be trivial to get SDL working with miniPicoLisp. I'd wrap enough
of SDL to get a minimal example running and extend it from there. If you put it
on GitHub I might help out too! :-)

Well, that answers a lot, thanks. Textures are great, but not the end, but
X11 would have to go, since that would only work on Linux and Mac? How hard
do you think it would be to replace X11? If it is very hard, it would be
best to just interface to SDL2, and have sound, graphics, i/o, and

Indeed.

Scratch that! I am getting senile. I went back to 7/2015, when I asked
similar questions to you, and you put an article on the site on rcsim! It's
working now...I am getting old!

I just tried to run rcsim.l on my newest PicoLisp system, and it didn't
run. I know I have run it on another box before. What am I doing wrong?
here's the code from load to failure. I typed '(go)' after the '-> go'
response, and it brought up a white window though:

I think Java is valid, but this is for fun, and to further my PicoLisp
education. Plus I think Ersatz is slow even for Java, no?
I program in C, well I used to, so I just need to get down with the io.l
file and see which route to take. I'd like to do somethign that has some
value for the PicoLisp c
I think minipicolisp is easy enough to extend. For a small game you need a
dozen or so C calls. The Java route is interesting but has its distribution
problems. What if there is no JVM on the target machine?

Oh, I see :(
If portability is an issue, and miniPicoLisp is both too limited and
tedious to extend, then Rob should indeed also consider ErsaztLisp.
That support is not going to be widely spread until
a few years down the road.
Even so, I expect it (Ubuntu on Windows) to be a
downloadable server component rather than standard on all Windows client
versions.
best regards,
Jakob

I haven't investigated, but perhaps that's no longer a problem now that

I'd love to use full PicoLisp, because it is still small, but it is POSIX
dependent so you need Cygwin to make and distribute to Windows systems.
Windows is still the largest gaming platform.
8th programming language builds on most platforms, is small, but it's a
Forth derivative. Red language bui

I think it is quite hard to get @lib/openGl.l to work with
