The CMUCL project is pleased to announce the release of CMUCL 21c.

|

This is a major release which contains numerous enhancements and bug
|
|

fixes from the 21a release.

CMUCL is a free, high performance implementation of the Common Lisp
|
|
9
|
programming language which runs on most major Unix platforms. It
|
|
10
|
mainly conforms to the ANSI Common Lisp standard. CMUCL provides a
|
|
11
|
sophisticated native code compiler; a powerful foreign function
|
|
12
|
interface; an implementation of CLOS, the Common Lisp Object System,
|
|
13
|
which includes multi-methods and a meta-object protocol; a
|
|
14
|
source-level debugger and code profiler; and an Emacs-like editor
|
|
15
|
implemented in Common Lisp. CMUCL is maintained by a team of
|
|
16
|
volunteers collaborating over the Internet, and is mostly in the
|
|
17
|
public domain.
