I've heard wonders of Lisp OSes, but haven't tried one.
- fiddlerwoaroof 6y agoInterlisp/Medley has sort of revived as an application that runs on your computer: https://interlisp.org/ https://interlisp.org/ There’s also Mezzano which is a relatively new, from scratch Common Lisp implementation on bare metal: https://github.com/froggey/Mezzano https://github.com/froggey/Mezzano Finally, if you know where to look, it’s possible to setup a Symbolics VM on Linux, which is somewhat interesting to poke around in (all the manuals available out of the box are pretty interesting to read through.)
- analognoise 6y agoOh wow, another retro computing system I now need to go exploring.
- Grumbledour 6y agoMy Linux-fu might just be to weak but I haven't yet managed to get the Symbolics VM to run. I was wondering, if there exists a Linux VM were someone already got it to work or if you could do it inside a container? It just seems really cumbersome and that is a shame, because it seems so worth to take a look at it.
