Too few sampled comments (1) to say how often HN recommends it.?

Why HN links it

The only comment is about PicoLisp and Posix dependencies across Windows, Linux and Mac; it does not discuss the blog's writing, so the posts' subject is not clear from the comments.

Summarised by Claude from a sample of 1 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.

    Yes, I tried. Problem is I am really trying to walk the line between Windows, Linux and possibly Mac. I run Elementary OS, and Windows 8.1 on one notebook, and Win 8.1 on the other. Like PicoLisp Chicken is really Posix-dependent. Sure you can run it, and run the IUP examples on Windows, but as soon as you try to use the eggs you mention, the dependencies on the Posix stuff puts it on the backburner for me. Right no…
