why the fuck does it use parentheses instead of brackets? I can type [] without having to press shift on a run of the mill qwerty keyboard, and based on the frequency you need to use them, it makes a shitload of difference.

I have the first row remapped in such way that I press shift to type digits and don't to type punctuation. Basically they are swapped.

You need the right tool for the job. When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

I don't think having to remap keys in order to have an okay time typing is the sign of a good syntax.

These keyboards were used with early MIT Lisp Machines.

If you're using emacs, then you can use:



(keyboard-translate ?\( ?\[)

(keyboard-translate ?\[ ?\()

(keyboard-translate ?\) ?\])

(keyboard-translate ?\] ?\))

Or just remap your keyboard, you fucker.

I'm asking. If you really are KB, why did you waste so many kilobytes at the end of every message with that stupid signature of yours

For fun. And hopefully incite scholarship, like /prog/ always does for me. I never would have learn of scheme if it weren't for /prog/riders.
