Edit ``CMUCL''
_(CMUCL) is a high-performance, free (mostly _(Public Domain)) *(Common Lisp implementation) that aims towards _(ANSI) compatibility and runs on a number of Unix platforms - including _(Linux)/ix86, _(Linux)/Alpha, _(FreeBSD)/ix86, _(NetBSD)/ix86, _(OpenBSD)/ix86, _(Solaris)/SPARC, _(HP-UX)/HPPA, and _(IRIX)/MIPS - though not all of these ports are current. See the
project home page
at cons.org for more information. _(Debian) _(GNU)/_(Linux) users will find that their distribution includes CMUCL packages (
Stable
version,
Testing
version,
Unstable
version) which they can grab using apt-get. More information about the _(CMUCL) port to _(Debian) can be found at _(CMUCL on Debian). Miles Egan maintains Redhat 7.x CMUCL RPMs. These are native RPMs (not built from Debian packages), are unofficial, and are supported solely by him, not by the CMUCL team. You can find them at
http://www.caddr.com/lisp
. The
EncyCMUCLopedia
is a collection of most - if not all - of the documentation related to _(CMUCL). It is updated a couple of times per year. The latest version is June 17, 2001. The
Design of CMU Common Lisp
documents internal details of the CMU _(Common Lisp) compiler and run-time system. By Robert A. MacLachlan (ed), updated January 15, 2003. Not sure anyone besides me has had a problem with this, but I just thought I'd mention that if you set *print-lines* and/or *print-right-margin* to sufficiently low values, error-messages may show up as just "..", which is quite confusing. Oh, and if something is weird, remember to try without your super-tweaked init.lisp-file, like I didn't. (
lisp -noinit
)
