CMUCL (a high performance free implementation of Common Lisp) includes
a motif binding, which even works with the free LessTif implementation
of the motif API. See

Please help. How can I compile the sources on a Dec-Unix 4.0C platform ?
There ist no readme and no global makefile...

It's extremely hard to compile CMUCL, and to do that, you need a working
version of CMUCL anyway.
There's a version for a DEC Alpha on www.cons.org, I think. Perhaps
that will work on your platform.

Is for Digital Unix or Linux? Does it matter? Assuming it isn't ready
to run under Linux and I have it running on a Pentium with Linux, how
hard would it be to build an Alpha/Linux version. Are there any
guidelines available?

Yes.

Quite difficult. You'll need to do a cross-compile from your
pentium/Linux box, after you port the Digital Unix port (which by the
way was recently done and could be considered preliminary) to Alpha
Linux.

Grab the cmucl-imp mail archives from cons.org. Plan on this taking at
least 1-2 weeks of your time, if you have the skill to do it.

Hmmm, isn't there some form of binary compatability between Digital
Unix (now called Tru64? DEC/Compaq are changing the name of that
operating system more often than I care to think of) and Linux?
Although this might involve having the DEC libc (and/or other
libraries), depending on whether the CMU CL port for Digital Unix is
statically linked or not, and whether there's a compatibility layer
for GNU libc. So you might still need a Digital Unix licence...
Or I'm simply confusing this with the SPARC/UltraSPARC versions of
Linux (the Alphas I still have all run under Digital Unix, or indeed
DEC OSF/1 ;).
Regs, Pierre.

For starters, such emulations usually don't go as far as to reproduce
the excact behaviour of signals handlers with their platform-specific
extensions, usually two additonal arguments or an implementation of
SA_SIGINFO. CMUCL needs there arguments to get the status of the
machine "outside" the signal handler.

Yes, I found any install scripts written in lisp...

Ok. I have download the binarys, and now I will test ist. Thanks.

If you don't have another machine with CMUCL 18 binaries to crosscompile,
try bootstrapping with a 17f binary for your platform:

There's also the CLM stuff that comes with CMUCL: http://www.cons.org/cmucl/.
It makes FFI calls to a daemon that creates and manages Motif widgets.
