This is literally the dumbest thing I've ever read.

Quite some work, I would think, since you'll have to keep up with the continuous changes to the project. Anyway, if you do it make it open source so I can run lisp-to-dylan on it. Thanks!

In a modern (circa the late '90s) Lisp, they are called head and tail.

For those who are interested in continuing to follow @DylanLanguage , we've moved to fosstodon.org/web/@DylanLang We'll leave this account active for now, but posts will be on fosstodon.org. You can follow the above DylanLang account from most federated Mastodon servers.

People don't seem to think Dylan is a Lisp so maybe it's the s-expressions that really matter to Lispers.

Dylan, because there's so much low-hanging fruit to implement. 😜 Working on improving the devx, with packages, a generalized build/install/update/status tool, a Lisp-like debugger/REPL, and LSP server.

Do you mean zero values?

What tools are y'all using to write 6502 these days? I used to use the LISA assembler on Apple II+.

A post about current Dylan projects. mastodon.technology/web/@Dyl… We'll be posting from @[email protected] first, from now on, but will try and repost things here as well.

heh, not sure about "mindy" per se, since Mindy still exists as a thing, but...and hear me out...what about "notbob"? notbob new workspace foo 🤔 And I forgot there's @ArmyOfBruce 's name, "deft", although that probably had different design goals. Good name though.

macOS support has been added now.

A GitHub Action for all of your Dylan continuous integration needs. (Linux-only, for now. macOS and Windows coming soon.) github.com/marketplace/actio…

So far "dylan" remains in the lead. 😁

In truth, since Dylan is supposed to be a portmanteau for Dynamic Language, we should really pronounce it the way Dave Chappelle does there. I learned something here today.

So what's a good name for a tool that creates Dylan dev workspaces, builds/runs tests, lists available packages etc? Should we go with boring "dylan" (the current choice) or is there something more fun we could use? Commence the bikeshedding!
