Can you elaborate on `lispy` vs `paredit`?

[port19x]

So far I've only done the extremely small subset of paredit that is paredit-forward-slurp-sexp.

I have briefly tested evil-cleverparens, only to be disappointed by it frequently leaving whitespace around sexp borders after slurp and barf operations.

What makes lispy nice for navigation and lisp coding?

What makes Lispy nice is that it turns on modal editing whenever you are on parens, and you only need to hit one key, such as e to evaluate the s-expression.

However, Lispy is broke right now as the maintainer has disappeared, so many of us are running forked versions. I might fork it myself soon.

You seem like a good candidate to make a nice fork of it. Let me know when you do

@port19x I'm glad you pushed me to do it, because I finally did it: https://github.com/enzuru/lispy

Good work :)
