The port to Adobe Flex is going extremely well and I have posted a link to the test Lisp workspace on the Vista Smalltalk main page. I have been able to run the application on a number of Windows XP machines without problem and it should run on Macintosh and Linux as well.
I will attempt to post documentation on the main site as more Lisp features are added; at the moment, there are only a few operators implemented:
- arithmetic +, -, *, / for both integer and float
- “string-cat” for concatenating strings
- “cons” for building lists
Smalltalk will be ported when the Lisp interpreter is sufficiently capable, probably in a couple of weeks.
My goal is to provide identical scripting functionality for both the .Net and the Flex environments and, thus far, everything is looking good. I have located a JSON library and also a project which is implementing Jabber protocol for ActionScript 3.0. This should enable using JSON to transport objects between a client application and a server or to send objects between client applications using Jabber instant messaging.
