Congratulations! Time to start coding!

(well, I don't recommend you download and run code like this... :)
Congrats! :-D
(btw Lutz, are you on Twitter?)
Ack! Can't run the intel .pkg, it reports that I've got a newer version of newlisp installed (I don't, I have 9.9.96).
Do the uninstall, then install again.
or do manually:
sudo rm -rf /Library/Receipts/newLISPpackage.pkg/
this is part of the uninstall.command script (you dbl-click on it) in the installation newlisp-10.0.0-intel.dmg
I am not on twitter.
thanks for all the congratulations, also posted the newlisp_manual.pdf 2 hours ago.
Sorry, I didn't mean to make that sound like a cry for help, was just reporting it in case this was something you wanted to know about.
Lutz,
What again where the right printing formats when you want to
print the newlisp manual?
Edit: fount it...
Print double sided on 8.5x11 inch or DIN A4 size paper, then cut to 7 x 9 inches and bind.
Yes, I often get that "newer package" problem too. I don't really understand why, but it happened in earlier releases too.
Wow! Congratulations and thank you!
newLisp is the best scripting language I ever used!
Wonderful, I've been waiting for this :). Best regards!
After some days of testing and trying really hard to find a bug, I couldn't find anything.... One moment I thought there was something with the UTF-8 stuff but it appeared to be a bug on my side :-)
So congrats! I will convert my old stuff to newLisp10 :-)

Thanks to xytroxon and all the others sending in corrections for documentation. A new version of Code Patterns is online here:
http://www.newlisp.org/downloads/CodePatterns.html
The manual was updated last on december 20th.
There will be a 10.0.1 maintenance release update during the first week of January, fixing some bugs and updating some external files. Most of these files are already online, i.e. stat.lsp and newLISPdoc.html.
Many thanks to everybody in the community for their participation and advice.
To all a good transition into a happy and peaceful year 2009.
Sorry Xytotron, there is a typo in your typos! it should be
otherwis -> otherwise
not
otherwis -> otherwize

Thankzzz!
Muzzzt of been the early AM hour here... ;)

I can't write-line to a file , maybe a bug, maybe i'm to dumb - i tried it in a program and than with the original-sample from the manual:
( write-line "hello there" out-file )
( close out-file )
leads to :
ERR: string expected in function write-line : out-file
my system : windows-xp
You are confused by the "string device" syntax verses the "file device" syntax...
Change:
To:
-- xytroxon
'write-line' changed order of parameters for 10.0, but unfortunately the string device example in the reference didn't get converted, now corrected:
http://www.newlisp.org/newlisp_manual.html#write-line
the I/O device is now always the first parameter
Thanks for the fast help - now it works fine.

The first time the Gen function is called, its accumulator is set to the value of the argument. Each successive call increments Gen's accumulator by the argument's value.
The definition of Gen:Gen shows, how a fuction is put in its own namespace without using the surroundng (context 'Gen) and (context MAIN) statements. In that case only symbols qualified by the namespace prefix will end up in the Gen context. In the above example the variable x is still part of MAIN.
and the example causes an error:
called from user defined function Gen

A default function can update the lexically isolated static variables contained inside its namespace:
;; a function with memory

(inc Gen:acc x)

On v.9.9.4 Win32 I additionally had to add a quote to the inc code:
replace (inc Gen:acc x)
with (inc 'Gen:acc x)

OK, I installed v.10.0.1 Win32 and this runs correctly
