newLISP in the real world / newlisp 10 changes
November 16, 2020, 02:28:03 AM
Hello, I've read in several places, i.e. https://github.com/kanendosei/artful-newlisp">https://github.com/kanendosei/artful-newlisp , there're code that needs to be rewritten to support newlisp 10 changes



Can anybody summarizes what are the changes that need rewritting in order to comply with newlisp >= 10 ?



of course I can crawl the web but it would be nice if some one have a compiled list of changes

Anything else we might add? / weirdness in newlisp
November 15, 2020, 04:02:08 PM
Hi,



I got again weird behaviour coding in newlisp.



I'm using  newLISP v.10.7.5 64-bit on Windows UTF8 libffi  using the NewLisp GS v.1.6

The downloaded zipped version  was a bit lower and then I downloaded the last exe and dll and overwrite the installed ones.



Now when I type this function in edit area of NewLisp GS or in REPL area, it is defined right:


Code Select
> (define (utf8code c) (cond ((< c 128) "0xxxxxxx") ((< c 2048) "110xxxxx 10xxxxxx") ((< c 65536) "1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx") ((< c 1114112) "11110xxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx")))
(lambda (c)
 (cond
  ((< c 128) "0xxxxxxx")
  ((< c 2048) "110xxxxx 10xxxxxx")
  ((< c 65536) "1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx")
  ((< c 1114112) "11110xxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx")))

but if I add little pretty print to it, then everything goes wrong:


Code Select

> (define (utf8code c)
(cond ((< c 128) "0xxxxxxx") ((< c 2048) "110xxxxx 10xxxxxx") ((< c 65536) "1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx") ((< c 1114112) "11110xxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx")))


ERR: missing parenthesis : "...(define (utf8code c) n"
> "0xxxxxxx"

ERR: missing parenthesis : "..."11110xxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx"��e"


It seems newlisp is not able to figure out function definition is not complete because entering the REPL in command line I get:


Code Select
> (define (f a)

ERR: missing parenthesis : "...(define (f a)n"


It seems like newlisp 10.7.5 only accepts one liners



Maybe is it a problem terminal not supporting unicode?   I tested with  windows cmd, windows powershell and mobaxterm (cygwin)

newLISP Graphics & Sound / is newlisp GS / guiserver abandoned ?
September 26, 2020, 01:15:01 PM
I see there's no option to download newlisp-GS in new versions of newlisp and also don't include guiserver.lsp neither



is it deprecated in any way?

here you are  https://pastebin.com/25z78mp3">https://pastebin.com/25z78mp3



it's ugly buggy code but not for the issue, you can see parens are balanced

parenthesis are balanced and code is checked both in several editors and repl



tests:

- code typed in newlisp GS editor and run from it

- code typed in external editor (geany and SciTE) and pasted into newlisp GS editor to run from it

- code typed in newlisp GS repl

- code type in newlisp repl  (started from cmd.exe console)

- code loaded in newlisp repl from text file edited in external editor, with command :  newslip.exe  file.lsp



allways parenthesis are balanced and allways I get the same error

Anything else we might add? / error in newlisp 10.7.1
September 25, 2020, 04:23:26 AM
sometimes newlisp 10.7.1 gets mad and is not able to parse s-expressions



I'm using newlisp-gs in windows 10 utf8 version, and sometimes when writting code in newlisp-gs editor it doen't match parenthesis properly and refuses to parse the expressions with weird error aparently related to encoding (even when typeing directly in editor!)



for example I got error like  ERR: missing parenthesis : "...oin fline ","))rn(close fo)rn(close f�F�"



the strange encoding reads (close fh) in code



same behaviour in console repl, with newlisp 10.7.1  run from windows cmd



anyone with similar problems?

Anything else we might add? / Section for bugs and weird things

It should be great to add a main topic in board index to talk about bugs and weird things happening with newlisp



I don't kow of a bug tracking system for newlisp, is there any?
