[Richard Suchenwirth] - (under construction) Here's a first approximation of making Tcl simulate LISP - there are subtle differences yet to solve, e.g. the $x formulation below - but build on it, and enjoy! proc progn body { set body [string map {( \{ ) "\} "} $body] foreach cmd $body { set _ [uplevel 1 $cmd] } set _ } foreach op {+ - * /} { proc $op args [string map [list @op@ $op] {expr [join $args @op@]}] } interp alias {} defun {} proc interp alias {} setq {} set set res [progn { (defun sq (x) (* $x $x)) (setq y 3) (sq $y) }] puts $res ---- [Tcl and LISP] - [Arts and crafts of Tcl-Tk programming]
