I am interested in hearing what non-lispers think of this syntax. https://pastebin.com/jNcQPsYx https://quitter.se/attachment/4625005
-
For the purpose of the question, Common Lisp, Scheme, and Clojure are considered kinds of lisps. I am looking into reducing parens.

@taknamay i'm not terribly experienced with lisp, but i still prefer sexps. Thinking about code as an AST is powerful. The piece you show makes it tempting to think about lisp as regular code. What is it like thinking about macros with this syntax?
-
@csaurus I will try writing a macro and see how it looks
-
@csaurus Here is "and" defined in terms of a macro. https://quitter.se/attachment/4628912

@taknamay oh cool, i forgot about hygienic macros and how that might change things. I still like parens tbh. Is this guile?
-
@csaurus It's a syntax I am making up, but I am thinking of implementing in Scheme.
