I just recalled that there is also ecl
(http://ecls.sourceforge.net/index.html), which seems to have interesting
features:
ECL stands for Embeddable Common-Lisp. The ECL project is an
effort to modernize Giusseppe Attardi's ECL environment to produce an
implementation of the Common-Lisp language which complies to the ANSI
X3J13 definition of the language.
The current ECL implementation features:
A bytecodes compiler and interpreter.
A translator to C.
An interface to foreign functions.
A dynamic loader.
The possibility to build standalone executables.
^^^^^^^^^^ (wouldn't this be nice?)
The Common-Lisp Object System (CLOS).
Conditions and restarts for handling errors.
Sockets as ordinary streams.
The Gnu Multiprecision library for fast bignum operations.
A simple conservative mark & sweep garbage collector.
The Boehm-Weiser garbage collector.
Since the developers aim at ansi compliance, a port might be not too
difficult, who knows...
