My program was written in lisp, so naturally I concur. I'm not actively using lisp any more, but I will offer various dialects of common lisp as the consensus choice of dialect.
My favorite implementation is lispworks. The "personal edition" is free and ought to be adequate for research. The big caveat for using lispworks is that it's a closed universe - editor, compiler, debugger, GUI are all in the same executable. The integration is great, but the strength is also the weakness if you want to share components with any other language. _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list computer-go@computer-go.org http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
