Naveen, As we've been having some difficulty with our mailer, I'm resending this information to you about IBUKI Common Lisp (IBCL). IBCL has been available on the Encore machine for nearly two years. IBCL is a fully supported derivative of KCL. IBUKI Common Lisp (IBCL) runs on nearly 40 different platforms and environments. IBCL is a full implementation of Common Lisp containing all of the Common Lisp functions, macros, and special forms specified in the book "Common Lisp: The Language" by Guy Steele Jr. IBCL has a compiler and interpreter, a debugger, tracing functions, an error handling system, an interface to X-windows, and a standardized interface to emacs-like editors. CLX is supported as is CLOS. IBUKI Common Lisp is ideal for use in an educational institution. It will run on small (4mb) workstation configurations, provides identical behavior across all of the supported environments, and has extensive on line documentation. IBUKI offers a department site license for $2500 which provides for the use of IBCL on all machines owned by the department on which IBCL runs. Both source and object distribution are available under this program, which may be extended to cover the entire campus. Software support and new releases are available at nominal charges. More than 1/6th of the computer science departments in North American schools as well as numerous European and Asian schools have now taken advantage of IBUKI's educational program. There is thus a growing international community of universities that use IBUKI Common Lisp as a tool for teaching and research.
