| ... would be a simple/powerful alternative to traditional assembler macros, keeping the assembler itself simple? That's the exactly the kind of thing Lisp shines at! There is at least one 6502 assembler/simulator I've come across years ago. BDD, is https://github.com/jdimeglio/6502-Simulator the place ... |

They are two of the biggest programs to date, with the exception of the compiler itself which I hope to have running ... |

| ... Strings and associated functions certainly makes it feel like a general purpose language. I believe DRAWL is a pretty palatable version of LISP 1.5 - before it got too big. It doesn't take much to understand the language, but a much greater investment to be productive in it. |

| As a Common Lisper & semi Lisp historian this looks great! Having that intermediate VM certainly makes tons of sense. Bookmarked and will reference it. |

Same for Lisp and then remembered something I'd used on the old BBC Micro back in the early 80s: BCPL. Dug out my old books, got the Acornsoft ROM image and ... |
