Carnegie Mellon University Common Lisp ( CMUCL ) is a free implementation of the Common Lisp programming language. CMUCL is public domain.

History

CMUCL began under the name Spice Lisp at Carnegie Mellon University (hence the later name ). The project was initially funded by DARPA. It is further developed since the early 1980s. The financial support was discontinued in 1994, since then it is operated as a project by different developers.

In 1999, with Steel Bank Common Lisp ( SBCL ) is a spin-off.

CMUCL runs on the x86 architecture under Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD and Solaris / SPARC, Linux / Alpha, IRIX / MIPS, HP-UX/HPPA and Mac OS X / PowerPC (experimental). There are efforts to port CMUCL on Win32/x86.
