Day 0 - x-platform ecl sdl2 open-a-window fun !

Hi everyone!

This is screwtape ~ the lispy gopher show with screwtape on SDF aNONradio, though someone is squatting that name here...

I'm very happy to be participating here for the first time. I spent the last hour remembering how to bang out a cross-platform open-a-gui-window repl function for embeddable common lisp. I will be posting separate snapshots of the ASDF project folder as I update it.

It's definitely quick and dirty compared to that silky sweet project template floating around here, but sometimes just jamming enough hideous C to barely get SDL2 game graphics in lisp is what you want to do, you know?

You can find it at the top of my phlog:

gopher://gopher.club/1/users/screwtape

web proxy: https://gopher.floodgap.com/gopher/gw.lite?=gopher.club+70+312f75736572732f73637...

What I got from the theme "jam no theme" was that it had to include jam or something, and I didn't want to have a theme. So what I'm envisaging is like, a simple berry ecosystem in ugly rectilinear graphics. And sort of cultivating or somehow sim-park-ing a broader world of berries, through autonomous berry-eating child drones. The idea is a WIP. How is everyone else, is there any way to communicate with me on this javascript? Anyway I'm also on the mastodon as well as the gopher: screwtape@mastodon.sdf.org .

Ramin, are you here?
