12:02:15 lieven and it looks atrocious. there are few alternatives to TeX if you want decent mathematical typography

12:39:16 yitzi dlowe: did you actually scrape and render the comments from the spec? That's awesome.

13:32:10 dlowe well, first I converted the spec from TeX to s-expressions while including the comments

13:32:19 dlowe then rendering it was pretty simple

13:54:24 soulseeder I am very new to this, but I must ask - why is this particular spec important?

13:55:03 soulseeder is it the broader version that then was cut to become the ansi cl standard?

14:50:11 dlowe soulseeder: it was cut just before the ANSI CL standard (which you have to pay to get access to)

14:50:38 dlowe The ANSI CL standard defines what Common Lisp *is* and what a conforming implementation must do.

14:50:59 dlowe Visen: dark mode / light mode switch added

14:51:41 dlowe So this spec draft was kind of a hack to make the documentation more freely available.
