This is a portable environment for composition in a subset of 
Common Lisp. It runs on the NeXT in Franz Lisp, in Gold Hill CL
on IBM ATs (with enough memory), in Kyoto Common Lisp on Vaxen
or whatever, and in general in any CL. It has interfaces to CSound,
Music4P, and the NeXT MusicKit. Interfaces to other synthesis software
are easy to make by editing an existing interface procedure. One file
is a talk from the 1988 AI and Music conference in Germany; others include
source code. An article on it is scheduled to appear in Computer
Music Journal 14/4.
