Register (bottom right), it's free. I guarantee it will be worth the effort.

Quote from: cormullionIt looks good! I'll use it in the next few weeks and report back with my experiences...


Thanks. BTW, this version is fully dynamic with the search and results coming directly from specific sites.



Another feature to note, is that all results are categorized by site.



I hope it works well for everyone.

Quote from: HPWSchouldn't 'newlisp.og' not read 'newlisp.org' in the site-list?


I would certainly think so.



I will find the person responsible for the error and take appropriate action.



Thanks!

newLISP newS / Do we need a central code repository?
August 04, 2009, 09:38:14 AM
Hi everyone,



I have always thought that http://www.cpan.org/">//http://www.cpan.org/ was a great idea and bespoke the maturity of the Perl language.



I had started to build a central code repository site for newLISP and then hurt my wrist so I'm trying to minimize by keyboard use.



In the meantime, I thought we might discuss the need for a repository and what features it might need, besides being able to browse and search for files?



Thoughts?

Go ahead, show me some love.

Quote from: cormullionWhat happened to the Code Repository post? I was going to ask some questions (about approvals, review, updates, longevity, etc) but the post has gone today...


I injured my wrist yesterday and won't be able to work on it for awhile. Since there had been no replies, just pulled the post and the site...for now.



Besides, I had completely overlooked (ADD kicked in again) that newlisp.org already has a code collections page.



We can still discuss it if you like, perhaps open a thread to determine if it is really needed?



Off to find a wrist brace that still lets me use a mouse & keyboard.

Quote from: ale870For example: I think one big missing thing in newLisp shell is an online help.


Let me see how this goes. I do appreciate the suggestion, but that is probably a little advanced for my limited newLISP experience. But I will put it on the ToDo list.

Quote from: cormullion... the sluggishness is occasionally noticeable. That's presumably nfshost? (Or php? :-) ) Or are you loading tons of stuff as well?




There is some pretty substantial processing in the PHP code, but when I had it on my test server (also remote), it was very fast, so I think nfhost plays a big role. On the other hand, you can't beat the price.

Will you be able to easily update the content when Lutz updates things (which he does often...)?


No, and that is the real downside. Maybe in 2.0. The problem, at least from my limited understanding is getting the user to specific parts of a long document. Even google doesn't help you there.


Quote from: cormullionThe links to the Introduction are less than ideal...


I agree. On the other hand, that is most dynamic content because it always links to the live document. It was just the best way to get it done.


Quote from: cormullion


Great work - can't wait to see what else you get up to!


How about a newLISP code repository (think CPAN)?



BTW, this is a quick & dirty (somewhat experimental) version just to test the waters. I know there is a lot more that can be done, and appreciate all suggestions.

newLISP newS / newLisp Document Search Site
August 01, 2009, 11:39:47 AM
Hi everyone,



I put together a site that allows you to search all of the newLisp documentation, including tutorials, related sites, etc.



http://newlispsearch.nfshost.com/">http://newlispsearch.nfshost.com/



Please let me know what you think. Right now it runs with PHP, but hopefully a future version will be newLisp (patience please, I'm still working though "Hello world").



Please note the slow speed is the fault of the server and not the script.



Enjoy, and please provide feedback.

Whither newLISP? /

Quote from: cormullionJoe: would you like to swap your machine with mine? :)


The program reported the wrong hardware. It is actually:



2 x 3.2 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon



But you probably won't want it. It has some fingerprints and dust on it.
