| 5 | On behalf of the developers of ABCL (Armed Bear Common Lisp) I'm glad to |
|---|
| 6 | be able to announce the 0.18.0 release. |
|---|
| 7 | |
|---|
| 8 | ABCL is a Common Lisp implementation implemented in Java and running on the |
|---|
| 9 | JVM, featuring both an interpreter and a compiler. The compiler targets the |
|---|
| 10 | JVM directly meaning that its output is runnable JVM bytecode. The fact |
|---|
| 11 | that ABCL is written in Java allows for relatively easy embedding in larger |
|---|
| 12 | applications. For integration with existing applications ABCL implements |
|---|
| 13 | Java Specification Request (JSR) 223: Java scripting API. |
|---|
| 14 | |
|---|
| 15 | |
|---|
| 16 | This release features - among lots of other things - faster initial startup, |
|---|
| 17 | faster special variable lookup and portable fasl files. You can find the full |
