Why would you disallow macros in the Lisp style?
- apgwoz 18y agoBecause people can't get over Lisp's lack of syntax. On the other hand, TCL is also a homoiconic language, which can support Lisp style macros and it too lacks popularity with the general programming community... I don't get it.
- rw 18y agoYou said: Because people can't get over Lisp's lack of syntax. "People" are getting over it all the time. Lisp is back, baby! Don't miss the elegance train.
