    The Superior Lisp Interaction Mode for Emacs

  • emacs4cl

    A tiny DIY kit to set up vanilla Emacs for Common Lisp programming

  • In addition to the great resources mentioned, see this guide: https://github.com/susam/emacs4cl I like it with one difference: keep the Emacs menu bar and use it to explore the available commands.

  • portacle

    A portable common lisp development environment

  • See also Portacle: https://portacle.github.io/ It is a portable Emacs that is ready-to-use for CL: it comes with Slime, some Emacs packages, Quicklisp and git.
