Hello Alexander, Thank you for replying directly!
>> Could you point to me how to search for these topics: >> 1. Does PicoLisp have a "live image" one could connect to remotely? > You mean a remote REPL that could be used for playing around?

Thank you, I knew. I have been successfully using it via WSL (Ubuntu). It was so easy to install. It seems upcoming WSL2 will bring a real Linux kernel, and more inter-operability. >> 3.

In my specific case (small-to-medium project for non-profit) I would not need to protect source, but it is good to know in general. >> 4.

That would be absolutely fantastic. I would really appreciate that, thank you! When you'll have time, my address is [lisp at gmx dot com]. Thanks! >> 5.

I hope I'll have the chance and honour to meet with you and others. Thank you again for creating PicoLisp, nurturing it and polishing it to such standards. A true jewel and a joy to use.
