I've never had any problem with car and cdr— in fact given their origins I rather liked the names. Why does every one think they are broken?

Seems from their postings that the real problem that Paul is guilty of is not doing what other people want them to. This un-slave like performance is of course met with name calling in truly adult fashion.

Thanks for the link! Turns out(I think it does) that if you use the 'numeric' version of the ce you want, everything works fine...

Excellent! Not only looks better(at least to my compulsively neat-freak eyes) but works as well!!

Improvement on several fronts; save state seems fixed and the save statement shows up with a semi-colon. That said, some problems remain. Edited buffer work flow:
Code Select

newLISP v.9.3.11 on Win32 IPv4, execute 'newlisp -h' for more info.

    ("%%Title: .ps")

Then:



1. make a change (bogus change state seems fixed...) and save

So un-authorized buffer eval-ing seems to remain.

This can also happen after executing code that uses println...



Any ideas about the change after clicking in the editor (dirty bit flip)?

p.s. I'd wondered what the keystroke(s) for clear screen were, thanks!

newLISP Graphics & Sound / 2 problems noted
April 28, 2008, 10:41:55 AM
I don't know how easy this will be to duplicate, but I've had to deal with two problems in the editor.



1. use ALT-2 to place cursor in REPL window, then

2. a simple click back in editor window flips the changed status.

3. next, after a save and a switch to the REPL window, hitting return results in:
Code Select

newLISP v.9.3.11 on Win32 IPv4, execute 'newlisp -h' for more info.

I don't think that is correct? Perhaps the save message is being evaluated?

The link to prompt-event under Reflection and customization doesn't seem to work. This would be the link in the manual proper, not the sidebar.

Don't quite seem to be there yet:
Code Select

> (setq g '(("tags" ("Event" "Northern Idaho Open")) ("moves" "d4" "f5") ("fen")))
(("tags" ("Event" "Northern Idaho Open")) ("moves" "d4" "f5") ("fen"))
> (push "x" g 2 -1)
"x"
> g
(("tags" ("Event" "Northern Idaho Open")) ("moves" "d4" "f5") ("x" "fen"))
> (push "xx" g 2 -1)
"xx"
> g
(("tags" ("Event" "Northern Idaho Open")) ("moves" "d4" "f5") ("x" "fen" "xx"))
> (push "xxx" g 2 -1)
"xxx"
> g
(("tags" ("Event" "Northern Idaho Open")) ("moves" "d4" "f5") ("x" "fen" "xx" "xxx"))

The at end nature of -1 seems lost the first time, working there after. Color me confused...

p.s. it may not be clear, but each list in g is meant to be an associative list...
