    As far as I know, in Lisp Machine, the entire software, from the operating system into user applications are all available as gigantic Lisp functions.

    We can use the functions in our code. We can also edit the code, even the code of the program we are currently running, save the code, then reload it.

    Yes, the operating system itself can be edited, saved and reloaded.

    But it is different with Emacs. It is basically an elisp interpreter with some functionalities to aid text editing. These two are all C code.

    They cannot be edited, saved and reload.

    Emacs in Unix possibly is different with Emacs (EINE, ZWEINE) on Lisp Machine.

    GNU Emacs as a Lisp Machine surely is very nice. But Daniel Weinreb himself disagree with that.

    Is it possible that Emacs is only Lisp Machine in spirit only?

    Note: on the debate about the original creator of Emacs, whether it is David Moon & Guy Steele or Richard Stallman, I am completely neutral.

    Edit: I have ever heard somewhere that Maxima is quite similar with GNU Emacs. At the core of Maxima is an implementation of Common Lisp. Maxima is just sitting on top of the Common Lisp.

  3. People of Emacs and Org Mode:
    Are there any packages to manage a project? I have projectile, but that's more for coding. I mean like a house move or fence build kinda project: something that has multiple todos and will take a protracted amount of time.

    Failing any specific package for that, what about a org template for said project?

  8. right now, I'm drafting a game analysis to publish on my gemlog, as usual. The point is that something as mundane as this can be done easily with your $EDITOR, whether #Vim or #GNUEmacs (I use the latter with Org mode for notes as you see).If you aren't using it for everything, you should. It’s a powerful tool, and part of hacker culture. Also, anyone claiming to be a hacker but not using Vim,GNU/Emacs is a #lammer GUI IDEs like Visual Studio are not just evil, they suck and make you a lammer.
