Spice Lisp
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Spice Lisp is a Lisp implementation of Common Lisp, originally written by CMU's Spice Lisp Group for the 16-bit PERQ workstation and its Accent operating system; it used that workstation's microcode abilities (it provided microcodes for Pascal, C, and Ada besides) to implement a stack architecture to store its data structures as 32-bit objects and to enable runtime type-checking. It would later be popular on other workstations
