The Jabberwocky IDE for LISP

The first beta release of the new Jabberwocky integrated development environment for LISP has been announced. Jabberwocky supports CLISP versions 2.27 and 2.28 and CMUCL versions 18c and 18d. Support for SBCL and GCL is planned. Jabberwocky works under Linux 2.4 and Windows, and has been released under the GNU GPL.

Jabberwocky's list of features include:

  • A lisp-aware editor with syntax coloring and code completion.
  • An interaction pane for display of the LISP process.
  • A browser for viewing source code, functions, and macros.
  • A source level debugger.

As time marches on, the list of IDEs for Linux continues to grow, Jabberwocky looks to be a useful addition to the Lisp developer's toolbox.
