Title: newLisp Internals
Post by: konrad on August 23, 2007, 08:12:05 PM

At the moment the Memory Management document is the only place to find out about internals, but I will add some more chapters over time.



Its really pretty simple, I can post a short one-page summary coming week. Currently I am travelling and communicating over a slow dial-up line ;-)
