Ale is a Lisp Environment

Ale is a Lisp Environment written in Go.

How To Install

Make sure your GOPATH is set, then run go get to retrieve the package.

go get github.com/kode4food/ale/cmd/ale

How To Run A Source File

Once you've installed the package, you can run it from GOPATH/bin like so:

ale somefile.lisp

# or

cat somefile.lisp | ale

How To Start The REPL

Ale has a very crude Read-Eval-Print Loop that will be more than happy to start if you invoke ale with no arguments from your shell.

Current Status

Still a work in progress, and the compiler is pretty fragile, but that will change rapidly.
