--- Comment #1 from Jason Vas Dias <jason.vas.dias(a)gmail.com> ---
Please consider including Alexander Burger's excellent picolisp
small footprint LISP interpreter:
https://picolisp.com -
into Fedora.
I have written a pure "Shared-Library-Only" build of picolisp,
which I use in both a working bash-builtin and in an Apache Module -
I'd like to make these open source, available to any EPEL / Fedora
or Ubuntu user, but picolisp has not as yet been delivered to
Red Hat RPM users to my knowledge. It IS in Ubuntu / Debian
and Android Termux.
It is very powerful, succinct, clear, well documented - see:
http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Category:PicoLisp
Do ask the author if it is OK : abu(a)software-lab.de
I think it would be fine with him, he already
gave permission to Debian / Ubuntu ; I doubt
he'd want to be bothered with Fedora Package Management, though -
I am happy to maintain the PicoLisp package for Fedora / EPEL,
keeping it up to date with Alex's latest release once a week or so.
PicoLisp has a "less is more" programming philosophy:
"Perfection is attained
not when there is nothing left to add
but when there is nothing left to take away.
"
(Antoine de Saint-Exupéry).
I have found it to be ultra robust and reliable, and efficient,
when used correctly, when used incorrectly it core-dumps, or, if lucky,
can '(throw ...) an error condition / exception that can
be caught with (try (catch ...) (finally ...) (prog ...))).
The documentation is excellent, available from the REPL,
or as HTML (shipped in RPM as /usr/share/picolisp/doc) :
https://picolisp.com/wiki/?Documentation .
Please give Fedora / RHEL users the benefits of PicoLisp,
enjoyed by Debian / Ubuntu / Android Termux users!
