On: Hy, a Lisp that compiles to Python

[paultag]

* lisp-1 (Python rules)

* Python (sucks)

* 2-way

* Yep! CLOS syntax

* Yep! hy.contrib.loop - to be promoted soon

* Yep, they're OK, relies on dispatch char that's static

* Very little, actually - it compiles to (pretty sane) Python AST / Bytecode - so good pdb works to debug Hy :)

awesome, looking forward to checking it out :) shame about the scoping, as you say, but i guess the python interop made it the natural choice.
