## Exercises

  1. Try to design an alternative to Lisp, with which you can do all the possible configurations you can think of.

  2. Take a look into your .emacs file and classify your variables in the categories described in the section named "Values in Lisp".

  3. See if you can think of a smarter way to append an element to the front of a list, other than doing

>     (cons val1 (cons val2 (cons val2 ... (cons val42.span class=compcode>original-list) ... )))

  4. Order your configurations from your .emacs files as described in the section named "Organization of Your Configurations" and byte-compile the files (given that you only use one version and flavor of Emacs).
