From: Joe Cheng Date: 2005-07-26T02:22:39+09:00 Subject: Re: Lisp on Lines I've only had passing experience with Lisp but the macro facility seems incredibly powerful and useful, especially for defining mini-languages. Also functions are real first-class constructs in Lisp and not in Ruby, afaict. I'm sure there's other stuff but those are the features I envy from Lisp. Now, how much less readable than Ruby is Lisp? ;) William James wrote: >How much less powerful than Lisp is Ruby? > >
