We shouldn't, however, expect any significant improvements, IMO. For the reasons explained, and the fact that lisp has almost no syntax, this is a difficult problem to solve. Not that it has prevented people from trying, though. Check out the work of Warren Teitelman on Conversational LISP and Do What I Mean, way back when most in this board weren't even born. CLISP could handle your typo, unsympathetically called "careless" in the paper; oh, well... http://www.softwarepreservation.org/projects/LISP/interlisp/Teitelman-3IJCAI.pdf http://www.bitsavers.org/pdf/xerox/parc/techReports/CSL-77-3_A_Display_Oriented_Programmers_Assistant.pdf -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
