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.
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.
Fastcm is a simple Web content management system. It allows the same content to be shared throughout an entire site or several different sites. It is an individual tool for a Webmaster rather than a collaborative system. Fastcm content typically consists of HTML fragments which are meant to be assembled.
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.
RScheme is an object-oriented, extended Scheme implementation with a compiler that targets C or (RScheme's own) bytecodes. It has features expected from a modern language: an object system, reflection, modules, namespaces, safe macros, threads, a system call interface (including sockets), separate compilation, and persistence, as well as the formal basis and power of the Scheme programming language. RScheme also features a powerful, elegant foreign code interface.
Nyquist is an elegant and powerful language for sound synthesis and music composition. Unlike score languages that tend to deal only with events, or signal processing languages that tend to deal only with signals and synthesis, it handles both in a single integrated system. It is also flexible and easy to use because it is based on an interactive Lisp interpreter. You can design instruments by combining functions (much as you would using the orchestra languages of Music V, cmusic, or Csound). You can call upon these instruments and generate a sound just by typing a simple expression. You can combine simple expressions into complex ones to create a whole composition. It runs under any Unix environment, MacOS, Windows 95, and Windows NT, and it produces sound files as output (or direct audio output under Windows).
SLIME is an integrated development environment for Common LISP which does everything you would expect from an IDE: code evaluation, compilation, macro expansion, and auto-completion. It also finds definitions of functions, and marks LISP forms which the compiler finds to be erroneous. It provides easy access to implementation-specific online documentation as well as the ability to look up symbols in the ANSI Common Lisp HyperSpec. Further, it includes an interactive debugger and object inspector.
