does anyone know if there is one like this written in common lisp?



ha! thanks man (or gal)


How available it is today I don't know but I suppose the old LISP-machines had OSes written in LISP.

do you know if its possible to find emulators? or even the machines themselves?

thanks!


There is an emulator available as a commercial product to those few folks who have a symbolics application still running. My coworker who used to work for symbolics has a lisp machine sitting in his den. And yes, it works.


I know one written in elisp... :)


Emacs is a good editor, but you can't seriously consider it an OS -- it doesn't even have threading.


I am living in one right now and it doesn't feel like it is not.

Anyway, if DOS3.3 is an OS...


not what i meant, but i like the sentiment.
