In Lisp

Name: Anonymous 2011-02-10 8:22

The question: why ``In Lisp" guy doesn't want to post the source code of his DSL?

1. It actually doesn't exist
2. The code is so ugly he's ashamed to post

Choose wisely.

You cant tell by the magical pattern matching for lists in his DSL that it doesn't exist[1].

Well, he did post some source code, which was quite the mess as a lotof reader macros were used, but it was still readable CL, so I'd opt for 2, except that some of the pseudocode he posted was pretty strange, meaning 1 wouldn't surprise me either.
Other options that I can see: 3. trolling, trying to make it seem like Lispers wouldn't post the code they write (I always do if I'm discussing my code with someone else; if it's something I wrote for myself or not for public consunption, I just don't talk or publish it) 4. He wants to use it in some commercial software he wrote or doesn't want to reveal his identity (unlikely for a variety of reasons)
