Shen Language Port for Wasp Lisp
This post intersects two of my favourite lispy languages. Shen is a functional programming language with a number of interesting features. These include: more →

Concurrency in Wasp Lisp
Wasp Lisp has a light weight co-operative threading model that's allows programming in an Actor style. It's possible to serialize Wasp values and send them to other processes and machines to be deserialized and run. MOSREF uses this to compile Lisp code on the console process and send the bytecode to drone processes to execute. This allows drones to operate... more →
Building Static Wasp Lisp Binaries on Linux
Wasp Lisp builds binaries that are linked dynamically to glibc. This ties the binary to specific versions of Linux. It's usually not possible to run on an OS with older glibc versions than what it was compiled against. I wanted to be able to run a single binary of Wasp Lisp and MOSREF drones on new Ubuntu versions and some... more →
Spawning Windows Commands in Wasp Lisp and MOSREF
It's been a while since I last wrote about MOSREF and Wasp Lisp. MOSREF is the secure remote injection framework written in Wasp Lisp. It facilitates penetration testing by enabling a console node to spawn drone nodes on different machines. The console handles communication between nodes and can run lisp programs on any node. The console can execute programs on... more →
Building Wasp Lisp and MOSREF for Android
Wasp Lisp is a small cross platform lisp by Scott Dunlop that I've written about before and MOSREF is the secure remote injection framework that is one of the applications written with it. I've been wanting to get Wasp running on Android and Gonk (the low level Android layer of Firefox OS) for debugging and small applications. One of the... more →
Wasp Lisp Respository Moves to Github
Scott Dunlop, The author of Wasp Lisp, has moved development from its bzr based launchpad location to WaspVM on github. Hopefully this will encourage more interest in the implementation with people forking and working on it. For an overview of Wasp Lisp you can read a couple of my previous posts on it: more →
Using the Wasp Lisp Secure Remote Injection Framework (MOSREF)
MOSREF is a secure remote injection framework written in Wasp Lisp (which I previously wrote about here). With MOSREF you have a 'console' program running which can create dones applications that are run on a target system. The console and drones can communicate with each other, executing shell commands or Wasp Lisp code. Drones can create other drones to 'bridge'... more →
Wasp Lisp - a Small Scheme-like Lisp
Wasp Lisp is a small Scheme-like Lisp implementation developed by Scott Dunlop. It features a lightweight concurrency model (with similarities to Erlang and Termite). Wasp Lisp was originally derived from MOSREF - the Mosquito Secure Remote Execution Framework. It includes an implementation of MOSREF so can do similar things that the original was built for. Wasp feels a lot like... more →
