Subset of Common Lisp + CLOS (named: CL_0, or CommonLisp_0) CL_0 based on CLtL1.
Restriction:
Freely distributable and modifiable

Description:
CLISP is a Common Lisp (CLtL1) implementation by Bruno Haible of Karlsruhe University and Michael Stoll of Munich University, both in Germany. It needs only 1.5 MB of RAM. German and English versions are available, French coming soon. Packages running in CLISP include PCL and, on Unix machines, CLX. A native subset of CLOS is included.

CLtL1 + parts of CLtL2

Description:
CMU Common Lisp is public domain "industrial strength" Common Lisp programming environment. Many of the X3j13 changes have been incorporated into CMU CL. Wherever possible, this has been done so as to transparently allow use of either CLtL1 or proposed ANSI CL. Probably the new features most interesting to users are SETF functions, LOOP and the WITH-COMPILATION-UNIT macro.
  • The new CMU CL compiler (Python) is more sophisticated thatn other Common Lisp compilers. It produces better code and is easier to use.
  • The programming environment based on the Hemlock editor is better integrated than gnu-emacs based environments.
Conformance:
mostly X3J13 compatible.

Description:
Garnet is a user interface development environment for Common Lisp and X11. It helps you create graphical, interactive user interfaces for your software. Garnet is a large scale system containing many features and parts including a custom object-oriented programming system which uses a prototype-instance model. It includes postscript support, gester recognition, and Motif emulation.

Description:
GINA is an application framework based on Common Lisp and OSF/Motif to simplify the construction of graphical interactive applications. It consists of:
  • CLM, a language binding for OSF/Motif in Common Lisp.
  • the GINA application framework, a class library in CLOS
  • the GINA interface builder, an interactive tool implemented with GINA to design Motif windows.
Requires:
OSF/Motif 1.1 or better. Common Lisp with CLX, CLOS, PCL and processes.

Description:
Hyperlisp is a real-time MIDI programming environment embedded in Macintosh Common Lisp. The environment was developed specifically for the Hyperinstruments project at the MIT Media Laboratory, and is optimized for interactive systems which require fast response times. Hyperlisp provides two main services for the music programmer: routines for MIDI processing and primitives for scheduling the application of functions. Programs written in Macintosh Common Lisp can use these services for a wide variety of real-time MIDI applications.

Description:
A common lisp implementation as a shared library. WCL Is not a 100% complete Common Lisp, but it does have the full development environment including dynamic file loading and debugging. A modified version of GDB provides mixed-language debugging. A paper describing WCL was published in the proceedings of the 1992 Lisp and Functional Programming Conference.
