I'm currently reading Practical Common Lisp. The book is great and the language interesting, but I'm not enamored of learning Emacs. I've learned Vim and that's enough text-mode editors for one brain. I don't want to learn another. Double-control commands hurt my head. What's the best non-Emacs solution for programming Lisp on Windows?
SLIME is the most widely-used Common Lisp IDE. Portacle is a portable and multiplatform development environment. It includes Emacs with Slime, SBCL, Quicklisp and Git.
Emacs Lisp is a dialect of the Lisp programming language used as a scripting language by Emacs (a text editor family most commonly associated with GNU Emacs and XEmacs). It is used for implementing most of the editing functionality built into Emacs, the remainder being written in C, as is the Lisp interpreter.
Emacs is a software "Lisp Machine" that provides a programmable text editor, email reader, text web browser, image viwer, calculator, shell, games, easter-eggs and more.
Introduction. Gnu emacs can provide an interface to any Common Lisp system.
Best free and non-emacs Common Lisp IDE is CUSP (IDE for Lisp built on Eclipse platform).
Try LispWorks
Try viper-mode, perhaps.
