Oh please, stop.    You are describing fexprs.  You can implement fexprs
with macros (I have like six such fir CL, I can't even remember if I've
published any (looks like I have, actually).  You can't, in CL or any
language with semantics anything like similar to it, go the other way.

Right, if the language you already has supports every construct anyone
might ever want to do anything, then nobody needs macros.  That language
is, of course, for all practical purposes, infinite.  Its implementation
will take an infinite amount of time.  After, that is, people have agreed
what the useful constructs *are*.

Do they say that?  Which ones?  This one thinks that domain-specific and
application-specific languages are useful and thinks that languages with
facilities which allow the simple incremental construction of such
languages are therefore also useful.

No language has 100% of constructs anyone might ever want.  If it has
90% and requires a little stretching for the other 10%, it's doing ok.
Lisp starts maybe 50% and uses macros to make up for the rest.  Like
where other languages have "=" as a generic assignment operator, Lisp
has a complicated setf macro that handles part of the semantic analysis
phase of a more traditional compiler.

There's more to language than syntax, even if you find syntax important.
E.g. some users want fancy type systems including for their DSL's.
There are Lisp dialects that have that, but it's unfeasible in CL other
than through the Turing tarpit of macros.

I've mentioned this link before and it is pretty good:

No single language has 1% of constructs anyone might ever want.  In fact
there is no number which is small enough that any single language contains
that proportion, because the number of such constructs is not bounded
above.  If you think it is, then I am sorry for you.

A 'single language' here means 'a language without functions whose domains
and ranges are programs', and in particular functions whose domain is
programs written in some other language and whose range is programs written
in the base language.  Such 'single languages' don't really exist because
you can always use them to write such functions.  And the fact that people
endlessly do something equivalent to this should be a hint.

A weaker definition of 'single language' would be a system where facilities
for creating functions which do this are not part of the base language. 
Common Lisp is not a single language; the Scheme standards were for a long
time although probably no implementations were.  The Scheme standard no
longer is.  The C standard is(unless it's changed a lot).

So you mean 'CL can't do this thing if you disallow the facility it has to
enable you to do this thing and many other things'.  Well, yes that's
vacuous but true.

If I can code fluently in a language, that is, I can think entirely
about the application-level problem I'm trying to solve and not putting
much effort into choosing language constructs, then it's supplying 100%
of what I want at least at that moment.  That's great.

If I have to sometimes stop and think about language constructs and come
up with something that works but isn't entirely natural, but this
doesn't happen too often, I'm still satisfied.  That's the 90% that I
mean.

If you're saying that even CL only has 1%, then what's so great about
CL?  Do you really think you can fix the other 99% with macros?  That
seems unrealistic.

SubjectMacros (was Re: Resources to learn common lisp?)
Message-ID<115n30i$2hot4$1@dont-email.me>
In reply to#61467
I think it's worth understanding what macros actually mean.

Most programming languages are dictatorships: a small, usually
self-elected, self-important group of people designs a language, and
thousands or millions of serfs have to suffer the consequences of their
choices.

Sometimes there is a pretense of some limited form of democracy: perhaps
you, as a mere serf, can join the politburo and have a vote on what happens
to the language.  Sometimes this involves a payment to some nebulous
standards organisation.  Sometimes you can comment on suggested changes;
sometimes people might listen to those comments.  Sometimes the politburo
is not largely made up of representatives (either explicit or implicit) of
huge corporations who care not one jot about your interests.

Changes, when they happen at all, take years.  The language is ossified
almost as soon as it exists.

Almost always, for large systems, there will be tools built on top of the
ossified substrate language which allow people to write programs in a way
which actually matches their problem domain.  Those tools are, in fact,
*programming languages*, although they're usually implemented in an ad-hoc
way by people who don't even realise that what they are doing is designing
a programming language.  They are therefore predictably horrible.  If you
have not used such an ad-hoc language you probably have not worked on a
large system.

Sometimes people make a better decision: they take an existing (usually
dynamically typed as basically nobody likes static typing in the real
world, usually either not compiled or dynamically compiled) language which
has a good interface to the ossified substrate and expose functionality
written in the ossified substrate to the more flexible surface language. 
NumPy and all its relations are the canonical example of this.

That's at least better than the thing implemented using m4 on top of
Fortran or whatever.  But the thing written in m4 on top of Fortran is
*still* better than using Fortran directly (and this is not because
Fortran, today, is a bad language, which is is not, it's because it's an
ossified language).

Quite often what happens is that user or group of users of a language gets
so fed up with this process that they design a new language which better
meets their needs, perhaps starting with one of the ad-hoc languages above.
 That language then develops its own self-important politburo, becomes
ossified.

Recurse.

Lisp chose something else.  Lisp chose not to be a dictatorship, but to
treat its users as adults capable of making their own decisions: decisions
which were as good as the decisions of the politburo if not better. 
Decisions which, certainly, relfected the needs of the users making the
decisions rather than some distant observer.

Lisp looked at what *actually happens* in the world rather than in the
heads of the politburo members, and it saw that what happened was the
endless invention of new languages, either for specific problem domains, or
just because the existing languages were so terrible.  And it said, 'OK,
let's make that a feature, not something you have to fight your way
towards.  Let's build a language whose defining feature is that it lets you
build languages.  Let's allow it to let you build languages
*incrementally*, rather than putting some enormous barrier in your way.  So
you can take an existing language and define some extensions to it, and
those extensions wil have exactly the same status as the original language
does.'

If you disagree with the decisions of the politburo you don't have to wait
five years for the members to die and the decision to change, you can just
make the system do what you want, today.

Lisp understood that this means you have to make some compromises.  The
most significant is that the syntax of the language must have very low
commitment to the semantics.  That makes the language rather austere, but
it means that you, the user of the language, get to say what the semantics
is, without having to jump through some huge ring of fire and getting
burned in the process.

Lisp is a system built by people who understand how utterly stupid the
claim that any programming language contains 90% of all the constructs
anyone will ever need is.

Lisp is a democracy.  It is perhaps more than a democracy: it either is or
is close to an anarchy.  Anarchies obviously work only if their citizens
are actually adults and if they are willing to cooperate with one another. 
But, well, Lisp assumes you are.  If you're not an adult, or if you can't
deal with cooperating with other people in the design of the language
you're going to use, or if you like someone telling you what to do then,
well, do what thou wilt.

Lisp understands that a consequence of this anarchy is that different
groups of users working on different projects will end up using differing
languages, or dialects (*a shprakh iz a dyalekt mit an armey un flot*,
famously), and it also understands that *that's what happens anyway*,
except the languages and dialects people end up using are usually things
created using tools whose only datatype is the string.

Like I say: if you're happy to live as a serf in a dictactorship, or if you
feel you might become a dictator, then that's OK.  But please, stay the
fuck away from those of us who want not to be serfs or dictators, and who
want to make our own decisions in a community of our equals.

This url is not that news and I never saw it anywhere. Maybe you already
sent it but as my ISP is broken, I don't see all the messages. So it's
the first time I see this link.

Many thanks for this.

It tells me things about me which don't concern you. But it told me
things about LISP which always eluded me.

The fact is that LISP is almost never used is the real life. I know
stump, nyxt and guix are LISP programs, but they represent less than
0.[n]01% of users (I have no clue about the number of zeros represented
by n here, but I'd say you can put a big number).

Because if I know that LISP inspired a lot of things actually used in
other programming languages, I know that nobody actually is learning
LISP or computer history or anything that could explain why so many
messages about LISP are shared compared with the number of people using
it in a day to day basis.

I'm not a programmer, but as computer science is allowing me to get
things in my stomach (and as a French guy, what I put in my stomach is
very important don't belittle that part), I have to follow up on what's
happening in computer world. And I found a lot of things about LISP.
Don't get me wrong. I find something like 1% of blogs/articles/whatever
related to LISP. You can think it as small, but compared to what LISP is
used in real life, it's huge. For each article/blog/whatever about C or
C++ or COBOL, I can see at least ten articles/blog/whatever about LISP.
And it's something.

And I wondered about it from a long, long time. And this links explains
a lot, thanks.

No the subject of /weird/, I've also found it highly bizarre, if not
outright disturbing, that people don't use do ... while(); in C.  It's
an eminently useful structured programming pattern.

On the subject of Common Lisp, I find it more than disturbing when a
codebase lacks the basic usage of hash tables.

Finally, every time that I open a PR with that pattern I get questioned

That us exactly where it should be used - when there is no other way.

I don't agree, because that amounts to macros never being used.

It's never the case that there is no other way, because in place of
any macro, you can write the expansion by hand.

Macros should be used when it's better to use them than not.
It makes the code easier to write, read, maintain.
That's it.

When you use CLOS and functions, you are using macros; your program
is free of macro definitions because you are using ones that
were provided like defclass and defmethod.

Macros allowed that CLOS stuff to be developd more like a software
project---people experimenting with and iterating on implementations
of an object system---rather than a committee; though of course
there was that too.

Thank you for reading my mind.  As it happens, you got it wrong, and I
suggest you take another class in telepathy.  At minimum, your license
should be revoked, and you yourself subjected to a brutal interrogation
by the /inquisition/ for misusing telepathy.  I'm sure Eisenhorn is on
the case.

Anyway, what I meant to be getting at, is there are /patterns/ in Lisp
that cannot be done with mere functions.  I forgot exactly which pattern
I last used in anger that was impossible to make a function, so I'll let
you divine several examples.  Have fun.

They can also be done by the text editor.  XEmacs' skeletons come to
mind.


Please enjoy rewriting all your macros as skeletons, it should be a good
exercise for you!

To be fair, you need to understand that Racket is multi-platform,
needs to run on Windows, and Windows [for the most part] does not
implement POSIX functions.  

Racket's network [and filesystem, and ... ] implementation tries to
abstract over equivalent behaviors on all the target platforms.

Racket has its roots in Scheme.  Scheme is defined in terms of source
/text/ rather than the compiler's AST.  So there is no real equivalent
of Lisp's AST macros.

That said, Racket does support Lisp-like unhygienic macros with
'define-macro'. Apologies for the ridiculous length of the URL.

Can you use CYGwin? it is a bit ugly but it is POSIX. Microsoft should
be able to introduce a POSIX level (xyz) rather easily; they just don't
do that. It's like the Xterminal.

dunno, I cannot use windows 11; it needs a credit card. God bless the
Free Software Project!

I'm not aware that Racket can run over Cygwin. If it can, I would bet
that GUI/graphical programs won't work.

Certainly you can create an interface to Cygwin and use it directly.
[You can do this with pretty much any library.]

Yeah, i figured that no graphics would be their thing. I do remeber the
cygwin people talking about make an X Window type interface. dunno how
they plan to do that when the software changes ever other day that it rains.

I understand that.  I shouldn't have written "a critique of Racket" as
my post is really personal.  It's my weakness.  I think in terms of
POSIX---likely because I started there.  I got to know Racket after
giving myself a year of C and UNIX.  Now, in my defense, I think my
situation would be worse if I had started out in Racket and then later
discovered C and UNIX, say.  Call me stupid or whatever, but I'm happy
where I am.

And by the way some of my complains can also be exactly applied to
Common Lisp.  For instance, I think Common Lisp doesn't have the
semantics of POSIX's read(2).  I suppose there are libraries out there
that might go lower level (than Common Lisp's) and then give you an
abstraction that mimics read(2), but that's beside the point.

In the end I think we need to deal with the likely-fact that we can't
really write every program as something 100% portable (and not to be
totally slow at the same time, say).

But anyway I totally understand your point here.  Thanks for sharing.

Interesting. I bet this has been one my major difficulties because I had
never quite understood that and I probably still don't.  I had realized
I always needed to manipulate the syntax objects as opposed to sexps and
it was always confusing to insert a new identifier into the generating
code and so on.  The blame is of course always on me, but
yeah---difficult-to-understand stuff.  Common Lisp is a lot simpler, I
feel.  (Let me also say that I was never able to understand Scheme
compilers' error messages, Racket included.)

Is there an article out there that elaborate your paragraph here?  I'd
like to learn more about these differences.  I suppose the Scheme people
would have very strong arguments to go their way.

We need a project that can promise to shorten and maintain URLs for 50
years, say.  (I say fifty so a single hacker can keep it running during
his lifetime.  After 50 years, a young hacker takes it on for another
50.)  It'a pity that Google Inc. let us down with goo.gl.
