Change the name to have a Hamming distance of more than 1 from clisp. Like it's a cool language but I think it's very useable, call it something that can't be as easily confused. It's too sneaky to say Clasp instead of Clisp.
Clask, for instance. Two different letters.
- owl57 4y agoNote that the name of the language is not generally abbreviated this way. But there's another implementation called CLISP. Clask sounds like a Flask-inspired web framework for Common Lisp to me. [Googled it] Yep, "something like Flask", but in C++, not in Lisp.
- jinwoo68 4y agoIIUC Clasp is made from clang + lisp because it uses clang for the implementation.
- _ofdw 4y agoClasp is actually a word, and CLISP is part of GNU now so they should probably rename it something childish and cringe inducing like LURP, which is a recursive acronym for LERP: Universal REPL Programming or something.
