Bah! Lisp comes, out of the box, with far too many features! No no no. If you want the + operator to add two numbers, you have to say so! (Obviously there'll be extensive use of #include or equivalent.) It started out as a serious idea - a really clean language that would, like Lua or Python, be nicely embeddable in larger programs - and specifically, I wanted an expression evaluator that could have d-notation added to it. But the realisation that such a language consisted of a foot, a machine gun, and a belt of ammunition kinda led to it being dropped. ChrisA -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
