Shortcuts is a tool to make your own keyboard shortcuts for frequently used items and actions. It can set shortcuts for the most popular applications like iCal, iTunes, and Mail. It can set shortcuts for actions that control the system, volume, screen, and playback of music and video. Shortcuts can be used to open frequently used files and documents, scripts that you run regularly, and your favorite Web sites.
Launcher for Mac OS X is a fast and light utility that speeds up the way you work on your Mac. It features an application launcher that can use application names, abbreviations, and short commands to launch any app. It can also quickly and easily perform Web Searches with Google, Yahoo, Bing, eBay, Youtube, Wikipedia, and other search engines. It can simplify the execution of commands like activating the screen saver, muting the sound, and shutting down the computer. It includes a calculator and dictionary to perform simple and complex calculations and look up brief word definitions. It can make it easier to open frequently used files and Web sites, and can execute shell commands without Terminal app.
Steel Bank Common Lisp is a development environment for Common Lisp, with excellent support for the ANSI standard: garbage collection, lexical closures, powerful macros, strong dynamic typing, incremental compilation, and the famous Common Lisp Object System (multimethods and all). It also includes many extensions, such as native threads, socket support, a statistical profiler, programmable streams, and more. These are all available through an integrated, interactive native compiler which feels like an interpreter. SBCL is unique in being a multiplatform native compiler which bootstraps itself completely from source, using a C compiler and any other ANSI Common Lisp implementation.
Librep is a shared library implementing a Lisp dialect that is lightweight, reasonably fast, and highly extensible. It contains an interpreter, byte-code compiler, and virtual machine. Applications may use the interpreter as an extension language, or it may be used for standalone scripts. Rep was originally inspired by Emacs Lisp. However one of the main deficiencies of elisp--the reliance on dynamic scope--has been removed. Also, rep only has a single namespace for symbols.
Lush is a Lisp dialect with extensions for object-oriented and array-oriented programming. It is intended as a programming environment for prototyping numerically intensive applications. Unlike alternatives like Python or SciLab, Lush is designed for easy integration of existing C/C++/Fortran codes.
STMX is a high-performance Common Lisp library for composable Software Transactional Memory (STM), a concurrency control mechanism aimed at making concurrent programming easier to write and understand. Instead of traditional lock-based programming, one programs with atomic memory transactions: if a memory transaction returns normally it is committed. If it signals an error, it is rolled back. Transactions can safely run in parallel in different threads, are re-executed from the beginning in case of conflicts or if consistent reads cannot be guaranteed, and effects of a transaction are not visible from other threads until committed. This gives freedom from deadlocks, automatic rollback on failure, and aims to resolve the tension between granularity and concurrency.
