> depend on software packages like Dynamic Windows That was the reason for specification&development of the "Common Lisp Interface Manager" (CLIM), which was a portable reimplementation of Dynamic Windows to Common Lisp and CLOS. It supported to build the presentation-based user interfaces of Dynamic Windows. Implementations of CLIM were available for Lisp on Genera, Unix, Mac and Windows. CLIM 2 then was an attempt to blend better into the other GUIs. https://github.com/franzinc/clim2 https://mcclim.common-lisp.dev (McCLIM is an independent reimplementation of the CLIM 2 "standard". TI came up with a UIMS (User Interface Management System) based on Common Lisp + CLOS + CLX , called CLUE (Common Lisp User Environment) and CLIO.
