Scheme 9 from Empty Space (new edition)
- turbofail 16y agoAlso of possible interest is the link to the actual interpreter source code. http://www.t3x.org/s9fes/index.html http://www.t3x.org/s9fes/index.html Only problem is, you have to navigate your way through a maze to get to the actual code from there. I wrote a quick hacked-up web crawler (in emacs lisp, of all things!) to solve it because I was too impatient to do it for real.
- Vivtek 16y agoThat's really cute, but since you've solved the maze, can you tell me what the copyright encumbrance on that code is? Is it open? (By which I mean, is it worth my while to write my own crawler?)
- turbofail 16y agoHere's the license, copied verbatim from his LICENSE file: Scheme 9 from Empty Space -- A Comprehensible Scheme Interpreter By Nils M Holm, 2007-2010 * Do whatever you want with this code. * If the code doesn't work, don't blame me.
- Vivtek 16y agoAh - thanks. A direct link: http://github.com/barak/scheme9 http://github.com/barak/scheme9 (I feel better now).
- nils_m_holm 16y agoHowever, this version has little or nothing in common with the one on my homepage. And: S9fES (the interpreter) is in the public-domain.
- Vivtek 16y agoOh, I do like public domain. I'm going to wrap it in a Perl module so the whole thing comes right down from CPAN, just like SQLite. This is exactly what I've been waiting for, for years.

- nils_m_holm 16y agoBTW, please don't link to that directory or it will be listed by google, thereby defeating the purpose of the maze.
- bayareaguy 16y agoIt's too late for me to edit or delete the comment, but I see you've removed the link now so it may not matter. I am however curious about your maze. What do you believe it accomplishes?
- nils_m_holm 16y agoOne day I became tired of pitching free stuff, so I decided to do the opposite thing. Quality of feedback has improved a lot ever since.
