Description:
The interpreter is a shallow-binding (i.e., everything has dynamic scope), reference counting design making it suitable for experimenting with real-time and graphic user interface programming. Common Lisp compatibility macros are provided, and most of the examples in "Lisp" by Winston & Horn have been run on RefLisp. RefLisp makes no distinction between symbol-values and function-values, so a symbol can be either but not both. There are Lisp modules for lexical scope and for running indefinite extent Scheme programs.
