Neither have I. Lisp IDEs have features which make writing and
navigating through lists and other s-expressions really easy. For
example, Emacs users write and close lists with Alt+( and Alt+). Even
complex-looking structures are actually trivial to write. But I wouldn't
write a single expression of Lisp with Nano or Notepad! :-)

    (if (setf (nth 3 *foo*) (cond ((and (= bar 1)
                                        (> (length list) 3))
                                   (do-this))
                                  ((or (> blah 1)
                                       (< blah 5 ))
                                   (do-that)
                                   (and-some-more))
                                  (t
                                   (else-do))))
        (then-this)
      (else-this)
      (and-that))
