    Mirror of Steel Bank Common Lisp (SBCL)'s official repository

  • sbcl w/ linedit for repl/shell

  • dotfiles

  • I have been doing research trying to figure out what software in my current toolchain has a Lisp, specifically Common Lisp, alternative. Having looked around I have been able to find a few thing.

  • lem

  • Lem for text editing

  • st

    build of the suckless simple terminal with patches for alpha, font2, copyurl, openclipboard, invert, appsync, xresources, scrollback, w3m, keyboard select, boxdraw (by mrdotx)

  • I was curious if anyone here had some software they could recommend? I am having a hard time finding an alternative for tmux, slock, dmenu, and st though I am researching. I am also researching archiving and compression libraries in 100% Common Lisp to replace tar and such. I am also reading over the source code for cl-git as I know I will not find a Lisp implementation that does not rely on C for git protocol :(

  • tmux

    tmux source code
