New Re: Well yeah

I'm starting to dig Seaside - a Squeak based web app server - it uses continuations to basically stash a copy of the app in a given state mapped to various unique urls. Makes backtracking more straightforward to deal with (data persistence to a rdbms is another thing).


You might also be interested in looking at [link|http://www.plt-scheme.org|PLT Scheme], since IIRC they are the folks that Avi Bryant got the idea of continuation-based web apps from.

New Yeah but can you edit code in the browser?
Seaside has a page that implements a Smalltalk browser - on the local machine it feels about as fast as Squeak's GUI - and you don't have to switch windows. Thats pretty hard to beat.

I am out of the country for the duration of the Bush administration.
Please leave a message and I'll get back to you when democracy returns.
