I think that you'd need to tinker a little with ECL makefile to adjust flags in order to enable static linking. That said ECL does work with musl libc, so at least from the porting perspective there should not be any problem. If you ma

The short answer is no - ECL links against the libc present on the system. It is not that it could not be improved in this regard. Even when you compile with "--disable-shared" you'll link against libc (but everything else wi

Both ECL and GCL are descendants of Kyoto Common Lisp. That said ECL (generally speaking) is a complete as ANSI Common Lisp implementation[1], has more "man years" under its belt, has active community, better support across platfo

I know that ECL works on Apple M1 and otherwise, as of Swift - no idea. LQML / EQL5 created by Paul Ruetz is a very cool project that works on iphone, android and such with appealing graphical inteface. It is basically ECL embedded in

Hey, I'm one of ECL maintainers. If you have some questions I'll be glad to answer.

Hey! Emscripten port works (it will be merged somewhere soon, and we anticipate a release later this year), the next thing to target is "pure" WASI. Yes, ECL runs fine on OpenBSD (as well as on Windows, Linux, other BSD, haiku, ip

Could you elaborate what is similar to Common Lisp in Spaik?

Can we, I don't know, let people enjoy programming languages they like without calling it a waste?

I'm not arguing for or against whether they are in the dominant position; what I'm doing is pointing out that the grandparent quoted part of the text (and argues against it) without quoting the justification the author provided th

Well, I certainly had some expectations that are covered in the license. I.e that derivative work is a subject of some constraints and that copyrights are not removed from the code.

by jackdaniel 3y ago
This is addressed in the same paragraph - you can't scan/download "whole" github because you'll be throttled.

by jackdaniel 3y ago
That's a very far-fetched assertion.

the correction is not really correct - you say lgpl-2.1 without the "or later version". It is sometimes abbreviated ls LGPL-2.1+, but SPDX identifier is preferable since it is semi-standard for abbreviating license names.

ECL license is LGPL-2.1-or-later (not LGPL2), the same applies to Clasp (which was forked from ECL). n.b isn't this thread infested with bots? 4 or 5 nicks created 4 days ago with incomplete messages..

The op hypothetical assertion was that there is no difference between person and machine being 'inspired' by some creative work, so if we don't pursue George Lucas then why would we pursue copilot? And the thing is that the m

I've touched two things - that's why they were put in separate paragraphs. Let me spell it out in different words: 1. People have certain rights, duties and prohibitions. Equating the right of George Lucas to use ideas he saw with

I see this argument over and over again, and it is so flawed that it is hard to bear. There is no equal sign between a person and a program. There is also that thing called "scale" that is critical to the interpretation of the act

Sometimes when working on software the goal is not to get a competitive advantage, but to promote some ideas. Copyleft license is a tool that aims to help with granting, that the work derivatives are available to the public to read and modi

Common Lisp compiled to WASM(turtleware.eu)

ECL compiled with Emscripten to WASM. This is a proof of concept port that will be merged upstream before the upcoming release.

I think that it is up to the toolkit you use. For example with Wayland you could work with a single buffer and commit it, or work with two buffers and swap them. Moreover you can do things on the client side, say: drawing-buffer (single) [u

I think that most people who advocate against corporate/outrage-driven censorship are more concerned with the basis of such action - i.e if the speech is legal then it should not be banned from public forums based on a sentiment of the

Undermining the right to privacy is wicked, especially when you consider incorporated methods. Atracious: extremely wicked, brutal, or cruel - after Merriam-Webster. The key word here is "or". Mind, that ovearreaching control has

Neglected and even actively undermined the right to privacy is an act against the society. Some would consider that being an atrocity - contributing to a dystopia with oveareaching control of unchecked guardians ;)

Since we talk about CLOS (and HyperSpec, which is based on the last draft before the standard), I assume that we talk about Common Lisp. All conforming Common Lisp implementations have CLOS. To name a few which are used: free: ABCL, CLISP,
