Series of tutorials implementing a GUI for generating a tone in various Lisp dialects in order to survey the state of GUI programming in Lisp
This tutorial was updated on January 10, 2021 to generate a tone using Racket instead of merely wrapping a Linux-only command-line program called beep that controls the PC speaker. This should now make it possible to follow this tutorial on any OS su...
This tutorial was updated on January 10, 2021 to generate a tone using LambdaNative instead of merely wrapping a Linux-only command-line program called beep that controls the PC speaker. This should now make it possible to follow this tutorial on any...
Clojure is a dialect of Lisp that runs on the JVM. JavaFX is a modern GUI toolkit for the JVM. You could use JavaFX directly with Clojure's Java interop, but Cljfx provides a declarative and functional wrapper for JavaFX. Instead of building yet anot...
Embedded Qt5 Lisp (EQL5) is a Qt5 binding for Embedded Common Lisp (ECL). EQL5 is a bit different than most bindings. Instead of executing your Lisp source with ecl and importing the bindings, you compile a new interpreter (eql5) that combines both E...
PS/Tk stands for a portable Scheme interface to the Tk GUI toolkit. It has a rich history going all the way back to Scheme_wish by Sven Hartrumpf in 1997. Wolf-Dieter Busch created a Chicken port called Chicken/Tk in 2004. It took on its current name...
The cl-cffi-gtk library provides Common Lisp bindings to GTK. The library is developed with SBCL but should also work with Clozure CL and CLISP. For this tutorial, I'll be using SBCL. Instead of building yet another calculator, let's build a GUI for ...
