Lisp interpretor

Name: Anonymous 2010-12-21 17:29

I am learning Lisp and would like to know if there is a decent interpretor for Windows (as I can't work on Linux.)

as I can't work on Linux

Why not?

I have some devices that work on Windows only and I can't dual boot because it will be just a waste of time.

You could run a VM.

DrRacket, if it's Scheme. I don't know about CL.

>>5 if Scheme,
LispWorks or Clozure CL if CL.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA,

You have failed at life, OP.

Fuck, why?

Because LITHP.

Learn a decent language, like C++, Python or Perl

Because everybody who claims to support Lisp is just a troll.
Think about it; it's a 50 year old language that has NEVER in all its time achieved popularity except with a handful of very loud autists.
How useful could it possibly be?

[quote]I have some devices that work on Windows only[/quote]

So, you're writing the device drivers in a Lisp dialect for Linux while using Windows?

Most CL and Scheme implementations have Windows ports and they work fine. SBCL (CL), ClozureCL, CLISP, ECL, Allegro CL (non-free), LispWorks(non-free), Racket (Scheme), MIT Scheme, and many others work fine on Windows. See http://common-lisp.net/~dlw/LispSurvey.html or http://www.cliki.net/Common%20Lisp%20implementation . Some implementations may have some *nix-specific parts which won't work on Windows, but they are usually extensions (such as POSIX support for example).

I also forgot to mention that most of the implementations mentioned are not interpreted, but compile to native code, so if for whatever reason you're looking for slow interpreted versions, you may find that some of them come with interpreters too, but it's more of an exception, not the norm.

OP here.

What do you have against Lisp? It is one of the most beautiful languages out there from a theoretical point of view!

There seems to be one or two vocal trolls against it lately, I'd just ignore them and pay mind to the useful answers

Hahahahaha, well someone's definitely drunk the kool-aid.
Enjoy your failure of a language and failure of a life.

Prolog > Lisp.
Lisp is for those people who love to act as if they know everything but actually know very little and are constantly making a fool of themselves by doing such.

But you can write an ed clone with it?

It's useless. You can write beautiful DSL in it, but when you try to write something useful, it spank your anus harder than nigger with black dildo.

Looks like somebody tried to program in Lisp but got bitten by the fact that they can't program to begin with.
