When it comes to awesomeness to fame ratio, I can't think of a language with a higher one than Shen. It's odd how little people talk about it. I, unfortunately, suspect it has to do with the people leading it.
- tel 13y agoI've looked at Shen a few times and, honestly, I always get turned off by the syntax. There's not enough out there explaining why I should continue past that concern, and it seems to throw out what's nice about Lisp syntax in order to get halfway to Haskell's. I'm sure I'll take a look at it again sometime, but I'd really love some kind of intro that helped me to understand why it was worth the time investment to get to know it.
