Mine, a Coalton and Common Lisp IDE
- yenko 6mo agofrom https://coalton-lang.github.io/20260424-mine/ https://coalton-lang.github.io/20260424-mine/ > mine is different in that it’s supposed to be as easy as the QBASIC or the Borland Turbo products of yore, but for Coalton and Common Lisp Woah this is awesome. I'm too young to have used them but I'm fascinated with the idea of Borland Turbo Pascal, QuickBasic. Glad there is a lisp option now ;)

- giancarlostoro 6mo agoThere were a few Lisp editors a few years back Light Table was one and I forget there was another one but seems they were eventually discontinued. Those editors were kind of nice, they even showed you what every shortcut available could do visually the moment you held down the Control key.
- dismalaf 6mo agoLem for Common Lisp is still active. Plus Emacs has always been around. And Racket's built in editor... I do miss Light Table though, it was very nice.
- kjs3 6mo agoMaybe enumerate what was good about Light Table in case the author of Mine is looking for suggestions for improvement.
- dismalaf 5mo agoI mean, it was easy to set up, easy to use, the side pane showed the result of every expression and it was pretty. I'm guessing it fell by the wayside since Emacs and Neovim both have great Lisp plugins plus are easily scriptable.
