newLISP Fan Club

oofoe, as I said, Hyperlisp-Syntaxial is propietary software (not commercial). It is the one I'm used to because it is the one we use at work (defense, cryptanalysis). The language is Newlisp (except for some minor changes), but it has 1143 native functions. To give you an idea what kind of beast we are talking about I'll tell you it has functions such as crypto-analysis-algebraic-degree
crypto-analysis-bic-sac
crypto-analysis-crack-henon
crypto-analysis-ddt
crypto-analysis-diff-linear
crypto-analysis-differential-prob
crypto-analysis-f4-f5-joux
crypto-analysis-ffs-core
crypto-analysis-frobenius-test
crypto-analysis-higher-order
crypto-analysis-impossible-check
crypto-analysis-index-calculus

@Yael, you mentioned "Hyperlisp"...

Quote from: Yael on July 26, 2026, 11:03:23 PMHyperlisp-Sintaxial is the one to go. Hyperlisp is Newlisp on Dlang, with all Newlisp functions and libraries (modules) hardcoded in native D

Do you have a link for that? I've tried looking under various things but haven't been able to find it. Thanks!

Just to clarify, Rebel is very much alive. It's a hobby project, though, so I can't spend all my time working on it. I have a job, other interests, and life to take care of, too. My interest in the project hasn't faded at all — development just happens whenever I have the time and motivation.

There's no rush. 🙂

BTW I'm actually glad to see the community exploring different paths, whether it's Janet or the various newLISP forks. It's good to see people looking for ways forward rather than simply giving up on newLISP.

Oh! Yet another newlisp fork for unix/linux on github!

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/irr/newlisp-spark.git
./configure
make

All done without errors with libredline and libffi;
to test
./newlisp

And after that sudo make install
=======
Sources on github updated 2 days ago. Updated newlisp.c, nl-filesys.c, nl-list.c, nl-liststr.c, nl-math.c, nl-vm.c, nl-vm.h, nl-web.c, protos.h.
Many fixes. But rotate bug not fixed.
To fix it edit nl-liststr.c
string:
if(length <= 1 || count == 0 || length == labs(count))
replace to
if(length <= 1 || count == 0 || length == labs(count) || count % length == 0)

newlisp is very fast

That all.
Have a nice day!

Well this is pretty incredible, kudos to the author https://github.com/kimtg !

Wishing this project success!

A thousand thanks.
I have so much code to test...

In doc/MemoryManagement.html you may read about ORO & GC.

Looks pretty cool! I'm trying to figure out why it needs a GC though, I thought newLISP didn't need that because of ORO?

It looks, and it is, good. Blazing fast, which was the main goal. I guess we still need to update the math library to slowly get rid of external math libraries (GSL), but this is just a personal need. Newlisp-Neo is quite good as it stands, and fast enough for daily use. Whatever we could do to stay away from Python, the best.

There newliwsp fork on github:

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/kimtg/newlisp-neo.git

for compile without errors after ./configure-alt edit makefile_build
and add nl-vm.o to the end of line OBJS = ...

check
RLFLAGS = (if libreadline installed)
FFIFLAGS = (if libffi installed)

To fix (rotate) bug
edit nl-liststr.c
string:
if(length <= 1 || count == 0 || length == labs(count))
to
if(length <= 1 || count == 0 || length == labs(count) || count % length == 0)

It looks good.

Goodbye.
