I'm vaguely familiar with Lisp, but I'm not a Lisp programmer. Can you explain this comment?

- nilved 10y agoLisp languages are easy to build because of their simple syntax. It's also easy to use a Lisp to build a Lisp, since it is homoiconic (this is what you're doing with the macro system.)
- stcredzero 10y agoIt's much the same in Smalltalk. Often, one could create a domain-specific superset of Smalltalk, complete with its own control structures.
