Like that emacs?

no, it's just that we computer people only dimly realize we get worked up about things that aren't really worth it, and compare it to religion to make ourselves feel smart

if you say it's a religion, it's a religion

What is the machine codethat is generated by disassemble in SBCL?
4:26:25
karlosz
your cpu's native instruction set

Oh i see I was just confused cause the 'Break' instruction is not in x86_64.. i don't think? "(disassemble '(lambda (x) (* x x)))" generates "BREAK 16" as the last instruction.

karlosz
pretty sure its supposed to be BRK

vtomole
Yeah but that's not what i get: https://pastebin.com/s2cz94ik

They don't feed it into nasm or something. So they might have some syntax differences from what you're used to.
4:42:13
vtomole
Ah. SBCL has it's own assembler.
4:44:48
aeth
Afaik, yes. I asked that question a while back.

If x86 has "brk" but the compiler generates "break", does the compiler really generate x86 code?
4:45:08
aeth
I think ccl is similar. Its assembly is parenthesized and looks very Lispy.
4:46:01
aeth
vtomole: Do compilers that use AT&T syntax really generate x86 code? Because they're a lot further than SBCL's disassemble syntax.
4:46:52
aeth
vtomole: It would be interesting to know if the differences were defined somewhere, though

Is there a one-stop-shop guide to creating FFI to C?
8:12:11

I'm thinking of creating bindings to libselinux.

SWIG can generate CFFI code too

SWIG CFFI generation is not that good unfortunately

So, I'm trying to write a survey collection programmer, trying to think of how to persist the data

should I write to CSV? should I write to a database?

I am thinking of collect three types of data, boolean, string, and integer
