CL is lexically scoped. I think emacs is dynamicly scoped. I think emacs
lisp doesn't have real macros either. Lastly, emacs lisp has notions of
buffer local variables and keyboard mappings that are not completely clear
to me. In short (even though I learned lisp on InterLisp) I am lost enough
with emacs lisp.
On the other hand, emacs lisp has a good IDE (emacs) and a good debugger.
(I know about slime.) I've also discovered that you can use emacs lisp
(along with the compiler) independently of emacs the editor pretty easily.
Now, back to your question:
Command=#("fn:gg" 3 5 (fontified t))
To save the buffer, use M-x gnu-apl-save-function (C-c C-c)
Command="si"
Command="def"
Command=#("gg" 0 2 (fontified t))
Command=""
Command="APL_NATIVE_END_TAG"
Data:("error" "DOMAIN ERROR" "" ""):End-Data
progn: Unexpected error:
