Summer of Code 2008 is starting up!
Shop LispNYC, we've got cool items available at cafepress
LispNYC is a group devoted to the advocacy and advancement of professional software developers in their adoption of Lisp-based and functional programming technologies such as Common Lisp, Scheme, Arc, Clojure, etc.
We accomplish this through targeted programs of education, outreach, regular monthly meetings, email lists, development projects and spirited conversation with NY metro area Lisp professionals.
Our monthly meetings are held every second Tuesday, are free and open to all.
Excited yet? Read about the past meetings and events or contact us for more information and be one of the 235+ members of our mailing list.

Rahul Jain presents: DefDoc A TEX-inspired, Lisp-based document processing system
Lisp was originally designed for symbolic processing. Syntax manipulation is the most commonly used aspect of Lisp's symbolic processing capabilities currently. The defmacro form provided by Common Lisp allows one to define new language forms which have full access to the symbolic information of the code within their bodies. Within the macro definiton, the entire facilities of the Common Lisp language may be used, including any other functions or macros you have defined. This model is extremely powerful, and many advanced techniques for using it are explained in Paul Graham's book, "On Lisp"
