After a full year on Mastodon I've decided to come back to Twitter. The primary reason is more diverse community and content.

I have a script called `listener` to start SBCL with CLIM Listener, Swank waiting for Emacs connections and linedit interface wrapped for the console (I start it usually in tmux). #lisp

Free software is like these gingerbread biscuits - made with heart and tasty :-)

Santa Claus present for my mom ;-) #development

That said, I'm not up to it and I'm not recommending that phoe should do what he's doing, I'm only saying that he tries to address a serious problem which is not likely to solve itself by ignoring it. I don't think he'll gain much popularity for that though (I personally value my time enough to not engage with hextream alikes).

As an overblown example, we have a madman ruling in Poland currently, it doesn't make his actions any more justified, even if he believes that authoritarian church-state is a "fight for freedom", and even if he has devoted supporters.

I've finished this #McCLIM demo. It tests the functionality of medium-copy-area (and uses a proposed extension for blank-area presentation type[1]). #lisp

#ecl is now a #termux package too it seems:

New #clim demo in the making for copying data between pixmaps and mediums.

I've implemented a "modern" menu navigation style in #McCLIM - click to focus and keyboard navigation. That was a very mundane sub-task towards emacs-like gesture combos. #lisp

oh my god, where is my brain. The name Edward is so much better as a combination of Ed(itor) and Ward (unadulted) :_) changing!

I'm writing a new text editing substrate for McCLIM. Here is a small preview of wip on Eduardo (the substrate name).

Drei is the current module. The library will be still in tree, but McCLIM's core won't depend on it. On the picture a presentation how they work side-by-side.

I've programmed in C++ at professional capacity at some point of time, so I feel entitled to voice this opinion:

You may cut an infinite number of very sane programming languages from C++ standard, but slapped together they make a horrid mashup of non-orthogonal features which get in a way of each other.

If I had to guess it is because when they were before a choice: solve the problem with contemporary technique A) or B) they always chose both. Add C heritage and voila C++.

With the text style :) #lisp
