• Lisp resources (some snarfed directly from http://www.apl.jhu.edu/~hall/lisp.html):
  • An Introduction and Tutorial for Common Lisp by Marty Hall (excellent!).
  • Paul Graham's Beating the Averages, an article in praise of Lisp. See also the Lisp history and other links at this site.
  • Lisp Frequently Asked Questions
  • Digitool, the maker of Macintosh Common Lisp.
  • Franz, the maker of Allegro Common Lisp (for a Unix and Windows).
  • CMUCL: a high-performance, free Common Lisp implementation.
  • Allegro Common Lisp on-line documentation
  • The Common Lisp HyperSpec. An HTML version of the official ANSI specification for Common Lisp. From Kent Pitman and Harlequin Inc. Not a tutorial, but completely defines every function, variable, and construct all of Common Lisp.
  • Common Lisp: The Language (2nd Edition, HTML version). This was the official language definition prior to the release of the ANSI Specification, and is still a useful reference.
  • On-line guide to the CLOS MOP (Meta-Object Protocol).
  • User's Guide for CLIM 2.0. CLIM is the Common Lisp Interface Manager, a graphics library supported by several different vendors. User's Guide is from Harlequin.
