The # character is used as a comment character in newLISP. All characters on the same line following it, are taken as comment.



This allows writing mixed shell/newLISP scripts. E.g. all newLISP shell scripts in UNIX start with #!/usr/bin/newlisp or #!/usr/bin/env newlisp



Code: Select all

    #!/usr/bin/newlisp



    # this is an example UNIX script

    # containing newLISP code



    (println "Hello world")



    (exit)
