Clojure is actually an entirely different language in the Lisp family of languages. In addition to ABCL (Common Lisp on the JVM), there are also 2 or 3 Scheme implementations on the JVM. On Oct 29, 8:09 am, "bal...@gmail.com" wrote: > Hello, > > First let me congratulate the clojure team on thi

You can't use Clojure to run Common Lisp programs on the JVM. Clojure is it's own Lisp, and has nothing to do with Common Lisp. There are some implementations of Common Lisp on the JVM, the most popular of which I believe is ABCL. I believe there are some experimental Ubuntu packages available, b
