Hello guys, I want to find something about Arc the new lisp dialect by
Paul Graham. I could not found anything about except of short
description in one of the Paul Graham esseys. Where can I find
language specification, sources or more detailed description?

Yuri.

If you'd like to try Arc, send an email to try...@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx and
the'll notify you when there is something online to experiment with.

While you're waiting use Common Lisp .


Why does Paul Graham suggest using CL, when Arc is implemented on top of
Scheme?

Or to put it another way, if he prefers CL why implement Arc on top of
Scheme?
