Synchronicity at work. I was just wondering the same thing and have been working with tryarc.org

When I try the above I get:

  arc> (def prompt (msg)
        (pr msg)
        (readc)   ; grabs the newline
        (readline))
  #<procedure: prompt>
  arc> (prompt "Ask anything: ")
  Ask anything: nil
  arc>
Not going to be changing tryarc.org. Any suggestions?

Steve

This works for me on Anarki. You don't need the readc anymore, that's fixed thanks to mpr below.

Thanks.

Tried arclite and it, too, had problems with readline. However, its problem is that readline (and parse-format) depend upon readc, which is not defined.

Wow, I had to go lookup what arclite was :)

Found it on the arc wiki.
