Book Description

You'll find newLISP easy to learn and powerful, combining some of the power and elegance of classic LISP with the facilities of a modern scripting language, such as regular expressions, network functions, Unicode support, multitasking, and many others. This book is a straightforward and simple description of the basics of the language.

newLISP has been compiled into a Windows DLL (dynamic link library): newLISP.dll. Hans Peter Wickern made a free VisualNeo Win plugin that makes it possible to use newLISP within your VisualNeo Win GUI application builder

  1. shorter and more efficient code, e.g. by combining functions in one command
  2. in many cases, faster performance, e.g. in case of nested loops
  3. more than 350 built functions
  4. functions can be combined in one command
  5. great use of regular expressions
  6. VisualNeo applications with newLISP run fine and fast under Wine/Linux (in contrast to VBScript, that often crashes)
  7. newLISP is very well tested, so bugs will be rare.
