White_Flame: I guess I should have directed it at LdBeth more than you, but yes, you're right

but you'll have trouble distributing a compiled application with quri since it loads a data file from an asdf system relative path
14:01:07
patrixl
noted for the suggestion to use quri, it won't solve my immediate problem though ;)

filed an issue in Radiance anyway, if puri can't be updated easily then perhaps Radiance can work around it
14:02:26
jmercouris
you might look at where QL is loading Puri from and then you will be able to see how easily it can be updated
14:02:49
jmercouris
to use Radiance you had to add Shinmera's QL dist anyway, so he could easily patch it and provide a different version on his dist

AFAIK it's a perfectly valid way of encoding arrays in parameters, when you're not using json to pass data around but x-www-form-urlencoded
14:06:37
patrixl
now whether that should be used as GET or only on POST requests, is another question, I may be doing it wrong lol

hmm not a bad idea, it might allow me to remove even more Javascript from my page.. thanks jmercouris

I am having some trouble with sbcl, maybe someone here is willing to help. Essentially "(eq (intern "foo") '|foo|)" returns true when I interactively eval the code, but false when I run it as an executable generated by asdf or "sb-ext:save-lisp-and-die".
17:24:28
ck_
the code you saved does not define the symbol before that code is run? I'm not too familiar with sbcl internals, but I would guess that '|foo| gets READ into a different package than what surrounds the (intern "foo") during evaluation
17:30:34
leotaku
ck_: That would make sense, yeah. Any way I can ensure that both the literal symbol and the intern are in the same package?

rdh: The typical place is ~/quicklisp/local-projects. And they are not packages, they are systems.
18:13:21
beach
rdh: Oh, I mean that location for your own projects. Quicklisp will put them where it wants to when you install them with ql:quickload.

beach, just being that im new to lisp... i don't want things doing work for me, when i don't understand what it's doing.

Anyway, I am off to spend time with my (admittedly small) family. I am sure there are others around to help you in case you need it.

has there been any research on representing lisp programs with something other than sexprs?
20:59:12
White_Flame
there's some experiments with The Forced Indentation of Code to replace parens, too
21:03:22

Elronnd, Racketeers have a large variety of experiments with alternate syntaxes, from plain old parsers to systems that allow you to do macros with infix syntax.
