I made a LISP.

Normally in LISP:

; is comment
, is quasiquote

In my LISP:

# is comment
, is EOL
I'm adding quasiquote, I'm thinking it will be… ; ? or maybe $ ?

I have… no reason to do this. I just Like # as a comment operator, and ; feels weird to me because no other language I've used uses it.

Oh except I'm now using my LISP as a preprocessor for ASM, so I'm having to replace ; with # whenever I copypaste code.

Am I just being difficult? Is "but I like it" adequate?
