FYI, a new version of the MCLIDE Mac Lisp IDE is now released. The swank client includes installers for most supported Lisp implementations.
MCLIDE complements SLIME by making it easier to get started with Lisp for those that aren't already savvy emacs users.
Here is the official announcement:
--------------------------------------
MCLIDE is a free open source Macintosh IDE for Lisp implementations on any platform. It provides a double-clickable, stand-alone development environment that connects to a Lisp either locally or through the network.
The new MCLIDE 1.0b4 can install most supported Lisp implementations from the user interface, and has rich interactive development and debugging tools that make it easier to get productive with Lisp:
MCLIDE now also officially supports CLISP, in addition to Clojure, SBCL, Clozure CL, LispWorks and MCL. It can potentially be used with the same Lisp implementations as SLIME.
MCLIDE provides a consistent developer experience regardless of the Lisp. The built-in programming editor has paren matching, automatic indentation and numerous shortcuts. It comes with plug-ins providing optional Lisp syntax styling and symbol completion. Use it on the same computer as your Lisp system, or target one or more Lisp implementations on other computers or operating systems.
