My first Acme module
To write an Acme module is something very important for a CPAN contributor. We really want to write something for the Acme namespace, but we want it to be fun, interesting.
And, Acme::Lisp seems to meet these requirements. It is fun, it can be interesting. But it is just a kind of prototype.
What it does? It takes Lisp code written as array references and evaluates it. Do you want a sample? here it goes:
use Acme::Lisp;
$code = [qw(+ 2 4 6 8)];
print eval_lisp($code);
Run this and get... 20. Wonderful, huh?
an endless discussion thread about what features to include.
