CMUCL is the CMU implementation of Common Lisp.
|
|
|
|
First-aid documentation is in the manpages lisp(1) and cmucl(1) and
|
|
via the normal Common Lisp documentation runtime functions (describe
|
|
...) (documentation ...) and (apropos ...). The WWW homepage contains
|
|
a pointer to a real user manual.
|
|
|
|
CMUCL's strength in comparison with other Lisp systems (or most other
|
|
dynamic language implementations in general) is its highly optimizing
|
|
compiler. If you know how to write efficient Common Lisp code, you
|
|
are free of unwanted memory allocation, type checks, indirections to
|
|
objects. CMUCL helps you to write efficient Common Lisp --- it
|
|
generates very informative warning messages about code constructs that
|
|
prevent compilation to efficient code.
|
|
|
|
Optional packages for graphical user interfaces and other Common Lisp
|
|
applications and libraries (Eg. the "Hemlock" Editor) are on
|
|
ftp://ftp2.cons.org/pub/languages/lisp/cmucl/binaries/ (FreeBSD-Binaries)
|
|
and ftp://ftp2.cons.org/pub/languages/lisp/cmucl/ports/ (source).
