So, I've started learning LISP, just a bit of it, and I want to know if there's some kind of preprocessor or implementation of LISP that will allow the use of a() instead of (a), a(b) instead of (a b), etc., as well as [a], [a b], etc. as an alternate syntax (for lists). That would make it so much nicer and would be a reason not to give up because the few syntax there is totally sucks. The power of LISP is not worth it if you need to deal with ))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) at the end of a function, you need a parens highlighting editor to write a LISP program. I consider a decent language shouldn't require any particular editor.
