Is there a public domain window-based (& preferrably mouse-based)
editor available for lisp. Something that's based on
common windows is best. Also desirable is emacs compatibility,
the ability to edit several different lisp expressions in different
windows (i.e. it should be a re-entrant lisp function), and
user controllable pretty printing. Scrolling is essential. The
ultimate would be an editor that could display, edit, and scroll
the expression within a specified region of some window.

This is for an application where internal lisp structures need
to be editted frequently and where the edits are started by mouse
clicks on a graphical display. Firing up emacs for each edit
is unacceptable.

Note that I know about the demo that comes with Allegro common windows.
I'd like something more powerful if it is available.

Thanks

   This is for an application where internal lisp structures need

   is unacceptable.                               ^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Why not use the emacs server code? Is it unacceptable to start up even
a single emacs?
