What is Lispbox?

Lispbox is an IDE for Common Lisp development.

Actually, Lispbox is just a pre-configured packaging of the Emacs editing environment, SLIME (The Superior Lisp Interaction Mode for Emacs), the Quicklisp library manager, and the Clozure Common Lisp compiler.

Combined, these components integrate to provide all of the functionality you would expect from an IDE, and more. Lispbox makes it quick and easy to get started using them.

Lispbox test builds

To get Lispbox, simply download and extract the distribution for your platform. No installation required! Start Lispbox by running lispbox.bat (Windows) / lispbox.sh (Linux) / Emacs (OS X).

Known issues:

  • The Mac OS X version currently requires OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard.
  • The Linux version requires GTK2 and some other common libraries, and has issues with glibc on some Linux distributions.
  • All versions require a CPU with SSE2 support (anything relatively recent).
Windows OS X 32-bit
64-bit

The code to build Lispbox is currently hosted on github.

TODO

  • Compile on Mac OS X 10.4, for compatability
  • Make separate versions for common Linux distributions, and a statically compiled version
