Alfred M. Szmidt<a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/@oantolin" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@oantolin</a> Emacs predates Lisp Machines. Emacs is an editor, nothing more or less. It is not a Lisp environment, or a Lisp implementation. And yes, it is about Lisp, an extensible language. Emacs is special, but it is for other reasons. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/GNU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GNU</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Emacs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Emacs</a> is a far shot from <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/LispM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LispM</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/LispMachine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LispMachine</a>, and ZWEI is a far shot from <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/GNU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GNU</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Emacs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Emacs</a>.

Paolo Amoroso<a href="https://mastodon.ie/@surabax" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@surabax</a> 👆 What I find interesting in this Symbolics Genera retrospective by David Moon is the discussion of the origins and motivations behind the lack of kernel protection in the Lisp Machine environment and, more generally, in Lisp. These features emerged from social dynamics and values like the opennes of hacker culture as much as from engineering design decisions.<a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/lisp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lisp</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/symbolics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#symbolics</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/LispMachine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LispMachine</a>

Ramin Honary<a href="https://www.burgerrg.com/TR413.pdf%20" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">1994 Indiana U., Robert G. Berger: “The Scheme Machine”</a><blockquote>This paper describes the design and implementation of the Scheme Machine, a symbolic computer derived from an abstract Scheme interpreter. The derivation is performed in several transformation passes. First, the interpreter is factored into a compiler and an abstract CPU. Next, the CPU specification is refined so that it can be used with the Digital Design Derivation system. Finally, the DDD system assists in the transformation into hardware. The resulting CPU, implemented in field programmable gate arrays and PALs, is interfaced to a garbage-collecting heap to form a complete Scheme system.</blockquote><a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/scheme" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Scheme</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/schemelang" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SchemeLang</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/lispm" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LispM</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/lispmachine" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LispMachine</a>

Yaroslav KhnyginDavid A. Moon was one of the founders of Symbolics and one of the chief architects of its Lisp machines.

It displays the inherited Flavors. Flavors are early classes on the <a href="https://moth.social/tags/lispmachine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lispmachine</a>. The Listener is also a drawing plane. The command takes the name of a flavor class, then calls the graph formatter with arguments. PRESENT-FLAVOR prints the flavor and makes it mouse sensitive.

It actually works. ITERATE has even more features than LOOP, but uses a more Lisp-like syntax.In the right X11 window there is a Zmacs and a Lisp Listener. The left X11 window is from the same VLM, but displays the documentation browser in its own X11 window. The documentation content comes from another VLM.

The installation is slightly unusual. It's a virtual lisp machine (VLM), here running on a Mac with an M1 Pro cpu. UI is via X11, using the XQuartz application. The VLM talks to another VLM on the network, which provides various server functionality. But it also has its own file system, which is actually a Lisp Machine File System (LMFS). -> 2)
