Beats me, but you might try to get at one of the variables
inside of the ide (they usually have a lot of variables that
control their look and feel). If the variable exists and you
can set it, you're in the IDE. If you're compiled, then you
probably won't have a bunch of ide specific variables
that control the look of the program in there with you.
It might work - I haven't used lispworks, so YMMV

Try the following:
(if (mp:list-all-processes)
(do-whatever-with-running-ide)
(do-whatever-with-ide-not-running))
This seems to work because the IDE uses multiple windows, which by
definition means that the multiprocessing stuff is running.

Assuming he isn't using multiprocessing himself.

This would return non-nil for his own use only after he intentionally starts
up the MP stuff, assuming he isn't running in the IDE. Hence, before
starting any MP stuff on your own, just use the check outlined above....
