I posted this on the blog itself, but re-mentioning it here... I've been evolving Xiki for over 10 years to do be a language for doing this kind of thing. The ideas is you can interact with trees and other nested structures (file pat

Shows oscilliscope-like output from a microphone... woah. In other parts of the video he steps through a dsl that controls the LED, and it shows the code and controls the arduino as he scrolls through with his mouse. Check out 3:27, 3:57,

Much of Xiki has recently been extracted out into the 'xiki' shell command though. So when the vim Xiki client works, a lot of stuff will work (most of the menus). It just needs to grab the path based on where the cursor is, pass it to th

Hmm, I just got it running in a VM on 12.04 a few days ago. I'll try it again.

Cmd-return "launches" whatever line the cursor is on. It's analogous to what return does in a shell console. Ctrl-return and double-clicking do the same thing. When you launch a $... shell command it executes it and inserts the results.

You can type to narrow down after running anything. And its all just text so you can delete whatever you want, to narrow down the output (not practical on most shell consoles).

Never used MPW nor seen it in action, but many people have told me there are similarities. Being able to type stuff and double-click on it, I think. I'm working on making a page that highlights similarities between Xiki and various tools /

Yeah, totally. Someone should do that. I've brainstormed about it with a few XCode savvy friends. It would be super-slick if it were integrated into the Finder windows. So, you could drill into the dirs to get to a Xiki menu, and then d

I've been aware of Org Mode for a while. It's very slick. Sort of different philosophy but a few similarities (textual syntax for nesting / running commands, etc.).

There are other screencasts on xiki.org/screencasts that go into detail about specific scenarios. Some of them are a little out of date but the general idea is till the same. The one on web development is decent but needs an update. More

It's github.com/trogdoro/xiki (under "Code"). Or you can do "gem install xiki" and it will guide you through setting it up.

People have mentioned similarities with Smalltalk and other tools. If you know of a good screencast or something else that shows demos the Acme stuff it would be awesome if you could post the link in the comments.
