I had been combining in rnrs/mutable-pairs-6 when I needed mutable cons, I didn't realize they were available in the base language. Dangit.

Do you use emacs the lispworks editor, or something else for coding?

This book got me hooked on lisp years ago, I can’t thank you enough for writing it. It made both Common Lisp and emacs lisp accessible to me and I would not have learned them if the book did not exist. I hope you consider writing another ed

I recently saw there was a new Clojure plugin for Sublime Text called Sublime Clojure by Tonsky: https://github.com/tonsky/sublime-clojure In his documentation he mentions that he made the plugin in part because he did

This is actually pretty bad, their mobile app wasn't updated to explain the situation and was showing 0 new cases for the timeframe. I personally know people who took that at face value.

Interesting that you would use Rust for those operations since the JVM was already presumably giving you cross-platform implementations. Was that a significant performance bottleneck that got alleviated by using Rust, or was there another r

Awesome, looking forward to it. I hope Clojure/Scala wind up getting supported in the future, I'd love to try it out :) Keep up the good work!

Is the JVM portion still using Swing? And can you share any details about what you're using Rust for?
