Why don't you use indentation instead of parenthesis yet?

Because led to various problems. I'm using `|` now: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/saniv/symta/master/lib/compiler.s

It's amazing how these people's ``improved'' version of Lisp always, without fail, looks even worse.

define factorial(n)
  if {n <= 1}
    1
    {n * factorial{n - 1}}

What the fuck is that? Who would think this looks even remotely good?

They should just replace '(' with 'begin' and ')' with 'end'.

begin define begin factorial n end
  begin if begin <= n 1 end
    1
    begin * n begin factorial begin - n 1 end end end end end

Get rid of the text file limitations and allow the s-expression to be directly edited in a graphical tree view using the mouse and keyboard. (Or touch gestures on a tablet.)

define
|-- factorial
|   \-- n
\-- if
    |-- <= 
    |   |-- n 
    |   \-- 1
    |-- 1
    \-- * 
        |-- n 
        \-- factorial
            \-- -
                |-- n
                \-- 1

Why a tree? Why not a graph?

Any graph can be represented as a tree.

Any tree can be represented as a graph. So why tree?

No it can't.
>>10
But trees are graphs.

Of all languages Lisp probably benefits the least from FIOC. An improperly indented Sexpr is so hard to read that everyone already does it the exact same way as a form of self defense.

I suppose this can be said to some extent for most non-FIOC languages. However, Lisp is the only one I'm aware of where the documentation for the most popular editors actively discourage changing the auto-indent rules. Nobody bats an eye if you pick a different indent style for your own C project but changing the way Lisp is indented seems to be a shooting offense.

Just use XML.

The aspects you are willing to ignore are more important than the
aspects you are willing to accept. Robbery is not just another way of
making a living, rape is not just another way of satisfying basic
human needs, torture is not just another way of interrogation. And XML
is not just another way of writing S-exps. There are some things in
life that you do not do if you want to be a moral being and feel proud
of what you have accomplished.

I agree; robbery is the best way of making a living, rape is the best way of satisfying basic human needs, torture is the best method of interrogation, and XML is the best way of writing Unreadable-expressions.

rape is the best way of satisfying basic human needs

I dissagree, rape is a way of showing love

wow so edgy

sex isn't even a need, you don't die from a lack of sex unlike starvation.

You don't die but you suffer. Which is worse than dying.

That would be FOC (forced obfuscation of code).
