> i mean i guess congrats for getting it to work at all but it's not magical, it's tedious. Magic lies in the eyes of the beholder. So you may not find it magical while I do. But I don't understand how you say that it is tedious. With the homoiconicity of Lisp, you use the Lisp language itself to write macros and you manipulate the lists that make your Lisp programs directly. Mainstream languages these days either need you to learn a special syntax for macros or they need you to learn their AST structures/classes and manipulate them or sometimes both. Isn't this more tedious? Isn't the Lisp way simpler and less tedious?
