I would like to develop (or at least prototype) X Window applications
in Lisp (Scheme, actually). I would prefer to use a toolkit (either
Motif or OpenLook, or both). Is there an accepted set of Lisp language
bindings for either of these toolkits, or for Xlib? Has this been discussed
here before? Is there anything being done in this area already? I know
about Winterp; anything else?
(OK, I'll admit it, I've actually already implemented a bunch of Scheme
bindings for Motif, OpenLook, and Xlib, and I just wanted to find out if
I was wildly off base, or operating in total ignorance of existing work,
before posting my stuff to the net.)

Elk has a complete set of Scheme bindings for Xlib, Xt, and the Athena
and OSF/Motif widgets. It's on the MIT X11 tape (contrib); you can
find a newer version (Elk 1.5a) on export.lcs.mit.edu (/contrib).

CLX is a pretty standard Common Lisp binding for Xlib. It is on the MIT
core tape.
