Description

about using a certain prefixing as an alternative to grouping with parens and about using that to write (e)lisp code and how Emacs can help with all of that.

about the speaker:

  • an old earthling wants to share an idea about text structuring.
  • he actually uses this structuring for personal note taking and programming.
  • he typically uses lower case letters for writing.
