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.
