Yes, notebooks are a restrictive type of litterate programming, interactive and browser bound. TeX was "proven" as a text/typography tool by the fact that the source code written in WEB (interleaving pascal and TeX (this is m

When you think about it, Perseus did use Medusa's head to transform things into stone. In fact he turned king Polydectes and all of his followers into stone when he went back to Sephiros. Perseus defeated Medusa by not looking at her i

Yes, browsing the hyperspec (what a glorious name) inside of emacs was such a joy also. That's truly a shame scripting/glue languages took a different path than lisp, but well, you can always lisp shape anything.
