jlisp is a lisp interpreter. It is heavily influenced from
the suchlikes of scheme, emacs-lisp, ...
It was designed to be easily used as an embedded interpreter
(which is what is was actually developed for)
It is easily extended.
Another lisp interpreter??!?!?
Just what I needed, that and a hole in my head...
No, wait! This one is better
Why is it better?
'Cause *I* wrote it--Ouch! Stop throwing things at me...
some features:
smaller size than emacs!

faster than your C++ comiler:

% time CC /dev/null >&/dev/null
0.1u 0.5s 0:01 44% 0+212k 0+19io 3pf+0w
portable:
It also runs on non-Sparc boxen!
Even tested on a little endian box!
extensively creeped features!
(It slices, it dices...)
*easily* interfaced with C/C++!
(that's actually what it was designed for)
well documented (where have you heard that before):
completely self-documenting
The code has been placed on alt.sources and on
ftp.ee.rochester.edu:/pub/weisberg/jlisp-1.03.tar.gz
enjoy
