| Agreed. Stallman got sidetracked by Scheme, which IMHO was a
| dead-end.
too many people buying SICP and believing what they heard about it
being an important book. I too spent some time exploring Scheme, or
should I say, wasted some time, years ago, and nothing came of it
other than a profound irritation. these people seemed to be
completely disconnected from reality.
Scheme, and thus Guile, might have been a viable path if these people
had only been practical instead of stubbornly insisting on being odd.
| A Common Lisp emacs would be pretty sweet. There's a Climacs project,
| but they're just focused on providing an editor, not on providing a
| full-fledged emacs.
if nothing else, a proper Emacs in Common Lisp might give me a reason
to learn Lisp properly.
