    Inspired by the TaOS Virtual Processor[0]:

    "ChrysaLisp is a 64-bit, MIMD, multi-CPU, multi-threaded, multi-core, multi-user parallel operating system with features such as a GUI, terminal, OO Assembler, class libraries, C-Script compiler, Lisp interpreter, debugger, profiler, vector font engine, and more. It supports MacOS, Windows, and Linux for x64, Riscv64 and Arm64 and eventually will move to bare metal. It also allows the modeling of various network topologies and the use of ChrysaLib hub_nodes to join heterogeneous host networks. It has a virtual CPU instruction set and a powerful object and class system for the assembler and high-level languages. It has function-level dynamic binding and loading and a command terminal with a familiar interface for pipe-style command line applications. A Common Lisp-like interpreter is also provided."[1]

    Thanks, this saved me some time. I was just debugging why the project I work on (LibHunt) hadn't logged the mention of https://github.com/vygr/ChrysaLisp on this post... the reason being - you've updated the URL after it was submitted.

    ChrysaLisp is portable assembler in () more than Lisp - any other Lisp system wouldn't have comments about clobbering registers.
