and on GitHub (and see issue list)
It's great to work with old friends, as if 30 years hadn't passed.
We have a lispcore@googlegroups.com and interlisp@googlegroups.com mailing lists and weekly zoom calls.
Using old code feels like driving a vintage car. The quirks are more noticeable. I'm hoping we can smooth some of the rough edges of using it on different platforms and also bringing up some of the applications built in Interlisp.
Flashback - used UCI Lisp on a DEC-10 and DEC-20 for school projects. Later read about fancy things done in InterLisp (in SIGPLAN?) and excessive memory footprint - now microscopic.
ReplyDeleteNot sure what path you are taking, but compiling to Javascript in a web browser might make most sense, in one sense. (Bit surreal though.)
You might be amused by this! Maclisp, largely redone in Javascript.
DeleteIt's on my far back burner since the start of the pandemic tho.
Surreal is a good description.
