ILISP provides a somewhat lisp-machine like interface to lisp
listeners from Emacs.
ILISP 5.0 has been released.

------- README -------
This is version 5.0 of ILISP.
The major changes from 4.12:
--Now works with emacs-18, fsf emacs-19, and Lucid emacs-19.
--Major file splitting done in an attempt to modularize ILISP.
--Added 'message feature for lisp-no-popper, allows output from ILISP
to be sent to the message window (instead of via the popper or the
inferior lisp buffer) if it is one line long. Useful for small
arg-lists, etc. Now the default.
--Made the popper be off by default. To have the popper on, set
popper-pop-buffers and popper-buffers-to-skip to t in a
popper-load-hook. See the sample in popper.el
