Maybe: x xx xx x Worst-case would be going from far left to far right, which would take 3 presses.

Racket is highly underrated. I wish more people would use/talk about/evangelize it.

I've been toying with something similar in Atomo (running atop mongrel2): http://bitbucket.org/alex/web/src/2a90b9bd6322/example.atomo In its early stages it was continuation-based, but now it's just regular ol' closures. You can still us

Just pointing out: there was a breaking change from text 0.10.x -> 0.11; a few functions were renamed for consistency with the rest of the Haskell Platform, which it is now part of.

Not from what I've seen. There may be multiple apps for one task, but generally they don't directly copy one another.

Hackage has been down all day; I've uploaded a new version (0.2.1) just now which has the new condition/restart system, new REPL, and other goodies. Should be just a "cabal update; cabal install atomo" away! :)

Self and Io are both languages that have similar concepts but weren't direct inspiration; in Self's case, it was pure chance (I've never actually used Self), and in Io's case, Slate was a more direct influence. Io didn't have much mindshare

Yes; all of Atomo's kernel is defined using this Haskell DSL. For example, here's Atomo's ports system: http://darcsden.com/alex/atomo/browse/src/Atomo/Kernel/Ports... I've also written a few wrappers for Haskell libraries over at http:/

Right now, my priority with Atomo is consistency in the design and simplicity in the implementation. It's acting as an incubator for a ton of interesting language features at the moment (both for myself and for Slate), so I haven't made opt

Both of those uses of = above are actually pretty consistent, given how Atomo's scoping and dispatch system works. When you said "for 0, fib is 1," you could just as easily say "for the current scope object, x is Object clone." This is exac

This is one thing that I'm very glad Unity does - it removes those menubars and has a global menu like OS X. Saves so much screen space.

http://darcsden.com/ I fell in love with darcs (switched from git) and wanted a place to put my stuff, since github would no longer be of much use to me. So I made it. Right now I just add things as I need them, or think they'd be a good

Agreed. Being bound to GTK is no fun - I tried it on OS X and it was very sluggish and janky. Was very fun in Linux though.

Ah, ok - I misinterpreted the article. Actually, the article seems to be wrong? It seems to imply that this shouldn't work: Io> x := Object clone do( forward := 0; a := 1 ) ==> Object_0x1003a2e90: a =

Wow, that's a whole lot of pretty major changes just for this beta. It's great that the Add-Ons manager is in a tab now rather than a window. Hopefully the Downloads window gets the same treatment. Also: The "tabs on top" on OS X could use
