Yes, wisp : http://www.draketo.de/english/wisp But most lisper prefer parentheses. As for me I'm just starting to learn scheme because of GuixSD and I'm trying to get used to parentheses. It's not that bad if you use paredit/parinfer/...

Have you used wisp? I'm actually just about to work on a small github project to learn it, and was wondering if there's an editor with wisp syntax highlighting out there.

I tend to use VS Code, but it just has a plugin package named "wisp" with no documentation, looks for ".w" extensions, and is on version 0.0.1...

No, I'm just starting to learn my first lisp. I just found wisp while I was lurking on search engines for this parentheses "problem" (as I viewed it). Then I found this answer on quora and started to convince myself parentheses don't really matter: https://www.quora.com/Would-it-be-possible-to-replace-parent...

Right at this moment I'm reading this paredit guide : http://danmidwood.com/content/2014/11/21/animated-paredit.ht...
