Hi Robert,
I did see that (thanks for the link). This example is included with the source code for abcl also (in examples/lisp-to-java). I guess what I'd need help with is how to to make a jar file from the Main.java from examples/lisp-to-java (see below) file and then use that from abcl.
Thanks again, I really appreciate it,
-Dave
import org.armedbear.lisp.*;
public class Main { /** * This example creates an Interpreter instance, loads our * lisp code from a file and then looks up a function defined * in the loaded lisp file and executes the function. * * The function takes a single parameter and invokes a java method * on the object provided. We provide our Main object as the parameter. * */ public static void main(String[] argv) { try { Main thisObject = new Main(); Interpreter interpreter = Interpreter.createInstance(); interpreter.eval("(load "lispfunctions.lisp")"); // the function is not in a separate package, thus the // correct package is CL-USER. Symbol names are // upper case. Package needs the prefix, because java // also has a class named Package. org.armedbear.lisp.Package defaultPackage = Packages.findPackage("CL-USER"); Symbol voidsym = defaultPackage.findAccessibleSymbol("VOID-FUNCTION"); Function voidFunction = (Function) voidsym.getSymbolFunction(); voidFunction.execute(new JavaObject(thisObject)); } catch (Throwable t) { System.out.println("exception!"); t.printStackTrace(); } } public int addTwoNumbers(int a, int b) { return a + b; } }

David, have you seen this page?

It has some simple examples of calling from Java to ABCL and vv.
Hope this helps,
