Does newLISP have automatic memory management?
Yes, it does. But it is not the typical garbage collecting process you find in other interactive languages. Just like traditional garbage collecting languages, newLISP recycles unused memory. However, newLISP does it in a new, much more efficient way. newLISP’s memory management is synchronous with no sudden pauses in processing observed in languages with old-style garbage collection. newLISP’s unique automatic memory management is one of the reasons for newLISP’s speed, small size, and efficient memory usage.
