I don't have a dog in this fight since I use Windows, OS X and Linux all with some regularity; but I have personally found that most documentation out there seemed to assume a *nix. Of course doing the mental mapping is trivial, but it is an additional factor to hold in your head.
Honestly, I feel like the bigger hurdle is emacs, which isn't necessary, but almost every article about lisp makes it sound like it is.
- weaksauce 17y agoThe mental mapping is less trivial if they only know windows. Not insurmountable but it is a bit of a curve. Though switching to linux just to learn a computer language is a bit drastic.
- icey 17y agoWould you say it's more or less drastic than learning emacs? I'm going to go with less drastic.
