Hacking with Guile… Or how I stopped worrying and learned to love the REPL

[@tux1968]

Why in God's name did you not explain how to configure the REPL? You just blew past your configuration without even a mention of where to find a similar config. Would really like to know how to get that parenthesis matching magic, and Google isn't cooperating.

Lisp still hasn’t “clicked” for me yet

[@dylanconklin9872]

Lisp is basically manually building an abstract syntax tree. It's quite genius, because it becomes "syntaxless" in the sense that it follows the form (functionName parameter1 parameter 2 ... parameterN) no matter what. Forget using brackets, braces, ternary operators, or anything else fancy, because all it is is a collection of keywords that all work in the same way.
