My free time now is much more restricted then when I wrote that tutorial, but translating to Newlisp does sound like a fun project :)  Do you think there's a need for such a tutorial?   Any help translating the example code would be appreciated, and would definitely help speed along my own learning process...

I recently discovered NewLisp in a link on the Rebol mailing list.  It seems to share many of the features that've made Rebol useful to me (small file size, built-in GUI functionality, cross platform binaries, "batteries included" philosophy, etc.).  I love that it enables and embodies a more mainstream approach to licensing, community involvement, and connection with other common development tools (dlls, sqlite, etc.).  Moving from Rebol to Newlisp seem pretty intuitive so far - I'm looking forward to learning more :)

I recently discovered newlisp in a posting on the Rebol email list.  Both languages share some useful features (small file size, "batteries included" modules, cross platform GUI, etc.).  If anyone's interested in Rebol, my tutorials may help to introduce it:

http://musiclessonz.com/rebol.html">http://musiclessonz.com/rebol.html



The second link has a list of features and benefits explaning the useful characteristics of Rebol, and may be more appropriately concise for readers of this forum.



I love that NewLisp is open source and actively developed.  I'm finding the transition to newlisp from Rebol very comfortable and natural, and I'm looking forward to exploring more!
