Hi,

I have been playing with ECoLisp these days. I've been working on

+ making the C code look more like ANSI C
+ replacing the gargage collector with an external one (Boehm's one, for the
moment).
+ replacing the use of dld with dlopen and shared libraries.

Although my first concern was only memory management, my current idea is getting
something like Wade's CL shared library. The problem is that as I proceed
further I feel more and more that I need some sort of testsuite for this
program. Is there anything like that floating around? Does any of the free
implementations have one?

By the way, does anybody have an idea of how far is ECL from ANSI-CL?

Cheers
	Juanjo

there is a test suite for CLISP which you can browse in CVS at 
  
   <URL:http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/
   clisp/tests/?cvsroot=clisp>
