README
## DreamLisp Programming Language Interpreter
DreamLisp is a Lisp dialect with modules, lazy collections and is a Lisp-2 with an unhygienic macro system. DreamLisp interpreter is implemented in Objective-C and as such can run on macOS and iOS. It is tail recursive, uses ARC instead of garbage collection, has asynchronous communication using notifications taking advantage of the underlying Objective-C runtime and Foundation library. In the experimental version [objc-rt-1 branch](https://github.com/jsloop42/dreamlisp/tree/objc-rt-1), we can define classes and create objects at runtime from the REPL. At present, the language runs in interpreted mode.
#### Version
```
DreamLisp v3.4 (12) [Objective-C 2.0]
Shell v1.1 (4)
```
## Language Guide
[DreamLisp Programming Language Guide](Language%20Guide.md)
## Xcode Configurations
Use the `DreamLispAll` scheme to build all the targets which includes the framework, shell and test cases. This scheme is used for making release builds.
Use the `DreamLispAll-Debug` scheme for development. Since the shell uses readline library the Xcode console won't work properly. Instead this scheme opens the shell in Terminal app. Make sure to enable `DevToolsSecurity` so that the debugger can attach to the running process.
```
% sudo DevToolsSecurity -enable
```
