GCL is released under the terms of the LGPL and is the official common lisp of the GNU System. It runs on twelve GNU/Linux architectures (x86 amd64 powerpc s390 sparc arm alpha ia64 hppa m68k mips mipsel), Windows, Sparc Solaris, FreeBSD, and Mac OS X. GCL has support for cross-platform graphical user interfaces using the Tk widget set.
GCL is closely associated with the Maxima, ACL, ACL2, and Axiom projects.
GCL is under active development: the last version was released in September 6, 2014. The project is a GNU Savannah project and uses the GIT version control system.
The current stable release of GCL (gcl-2.6.12.tar.gz) is 2.6.12, and can be downloaded from GNU's FTP site. You can check out the GIT development source tree using the following commands:
git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/gcl.git cd gcl git checkout master cd gcl
You can download a MS Windows executable (".exe") and get other information for using GCL with Windows here.
The official home page has release notes and describes more of GCL's features (X, MPI, flexible C FFI).
