I saw one in the form of a wiki awhile back. schemers cookbook maybe. The venerable (lambda-the-ultimate) and readscheme still excellent. We can always use more lisp and scheme oriented sites.

why break regex support just because it's not what one person wants to use; the philosophy of more than one way to do it goes back to the beginning of computer science. I like Rubinius for the fact that it has educational value to see

Ruby does awk for the most part. I can't comment on strength since awk has a small footprint compared to both ruby and perl clocking in just under 96k. Also both emacs and ed are descendants of TECO =) The editors have had major impact on o
