On this and other mailing lists, there have been recent discussions of "numerical lisp" which in one aspect or another has been the vision of many of us, some for many years. My approach is to write libraries I think will form a piece of the overall solution, with the hope that others will join in and write compatible libraries that form another piece. So, I initially wrote GSLL and then split the grid part out into Antik (which has other features I adapted from my personal libraries). The grid functions can use enhancement, but they are usable now for developing library ports.<br>

The next time the need arises, I will try again, and post the results to encourage wider usage.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
