lovely lisp

usually i’m in sbcl via emacs slime & have found this app to be a perfect commonlisp for the iOS. happy hacking!

Almost usable

It’s amazing to be able to hack Lisp on an iPad! However, unfortunately, you can’t use it for real work because file management is non-existent: you can’t rename files, organize files into subdirectories, download others’ code (except using Quicklisp), open/save a file to any other app, etc. It’s hard to complain about a free app, but it’s so close to being good!

Lisp is a beautiful thing

I am so grateful to have it here.

Wonderful for early lisp learners!

I’m working my way through Touretzky’s “Common Lisp” and this app is a wonderful way to write brief scripts to practice syntax and test understanding. Lisp rules!

5 stars. Great customer support

Solid GUI without distracting bells & whistles. I got swift email support in response to questions.
