+CMUCL is the CMU implementation of Common Lisp.
First-aid documentation is in the manpages lisp(1) and cmucl(1) and
via the normal Common Lisp documentation runtime functions (describe

-CMUCL's strength in comparison with other Lisp systems (or dynamic

-how to write efficient Common Lisp code, you are free of unwanted
