I love the Lisp ecosystem and my only real regret is that PicoLisp does not run on macOS because I think as a tiny Lisp that it is practical for some applications and there are several very interesting programs written in it.
- 7thaccount 4y agoI've also only played around with picolisp, but thought it was pretty cool. The design ideas are kind of cool for sure, but I can't put my finger on why.

- mark_l_watson 4y agoThank you!!
- mark_l_watson 4y agoI had problems getting that running. So: The easiest way to do this on a M1/arm64 macOS system that I found was doing a 'brew install lima', start lima, apt install picolisp+emacs, then set up plisp-mode. This is a fast setup to run Emacs+picolisp in a Mac terminal, and file sharing between Linux and macOS is OK also.
