The ECL project aims to</div><div>produce an implementation of the Common-Lisp language which complies</div>
<div>to the ANSI X3J13 definition of the language.</div><div><br></div><div>The term embeddable refers to the fact that ECL includes a lisp to C</div><div>compiler, which produces libraries (static or dynamic) that can be</div>
<div>called from C programs. Furthermore, ECL can produce standalone</div><div>executables from your lisp code and can itself be linked to your</div><div>programs as a shared library.</div><div><br></div><div>ECL supports the operating systems Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD,</div>
<div>Solaris (at least v. 9), Microsoft Windows and OSX, running on top of</div><div>the Intel, Sparc, Alpha and PowerPC processors. Porting to other</div><div>architectures should be rather easy.</div><div><br></div><div>
ECL is currently hosted at SourceForge. The home page of the project</div><div>is <a href="http://ecls.sourceforge.net/" target="_blank">http://ecls.sourceforge.net</a>, and in it you will find source code</div><div>releases, a git/CVS tree and some useful documentation.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Known issues</div><div>============</div><div><br></div><div>ECL's dynamic FFI (the one that does not rely on a C compiler) is now</div><div>implemented using libffi (See <a href="http://sourceware.org/libffi/" target="_blank">http://sourceware.org/libffi/</a>). Until</div>
<div>another release in which the library might be bundled together with</div><div>ECL, users will have to make sure that this library is built and</div><div>available for this feature to be linked in (#+dffi). Otherwise only</div>
<div>the C-based foreign function interface will be available.</div><div><br></div><div>Changes since last release</div><div>==========================</div><div><br></div><div>See file src/CHANGELOG or browse it online</div>
