All available Common Lisp implementations are compilers - one (CLISP) compiles to bytecode while all others compile to machine code. > I found was Common Lisp under Cygwin. "Common Lisp" is not an implementation but a language (defined by an ANSI standard). You're probably talking about CLISP (which is an implementation of the language Common Lisp) which runs on Cygwin. > Not exactly win32 native. But good enough, I think. Native Win32 versions of CLISP are available. And there's also ECL. Also, if you're just learning CL it's perfectly fine to use the trial versions of AllegroCL or LispWorks. Why do you need an open source implementation to learn a language? Cheers, Edi. -- Lisp is not dead, it just smells funny.
