Libraries and Resources for Common Lisp


General ANSI Common Lisp Resources

You can find general information about ANSI Common Lisp at the following external resources:

  • Common Lisp HyperSpec

    Online version of the ANSI Common Lisp language standard.

  • CLiki

    A collection of links to and resources for free software implemented in Common Lisp.

  • Quicklisp

    Quicklisp makes it easy to get started with a rich set of community-developed Common Lisp libraries.

  • Quickdocs

    Quickdocs is the one-stop place to find documentation for the libraries in Quicklisp.

  • Practical Common Lisp

    This book by Peter Seibel, available online and in print, gives a good practical introduction to using Common Lisp.

  • The Common Lisp Cookbook

    A collaborative project that aims to provide for Common Lisp something similar to the Perl Cookbook published by O'Reilly.

PMSF Free Software

We offer the following Common Lisp libraries as free software:

  • Deflate

    CL implementation of Deflate

  • MD5

    CL implementation of MD5

  • SHA3

    CL implementation of SHA3

CMUCL Download Mirrors

We maintain a mirror of the download area of the CMUCL website:

  • http://pmsf.eu/pub/cmucl/

    This is a complete mirror of the CMUCL download area, as well as being an rsync server (see below) of the mirroring network, which should provide good bandwidth across Europe and the USA.

  • rsync://rsync.pmsf.net/cmucl/

    This gives rsync access to the complete mirror of the CMUCL download area, which should provide good bandwidth across Europe and the USA.

You can find a complete list of CMUCL download mirrors here. If you want to establish another download mirror, please contact us at cmucl@pmsf.eu for all necessary arrangements.
