Hello,
I recently got used to (X)Emacs and am now wondering, whether there is
more of software that uses a Lisp dialect to be customized at
run-time. The only example I could find was the Generic Window
Manager, but it dates back about 6 years.
Regards,
Julian St.

The most prominent example (apart from Emacs) is probably AutoCAD
<http://www.autodesk.com/autocad> which like Emacs has its own Lisp
dialect, AutoLISP.
Sawfish, the default window manager for Gnome, uses librep
<http://librep.sourceforge.net/> as an extension language.
Very often Scheme, a remote relative of Lisp, is used as an extension
language - probably because it's fairly easy to implement. Examples
include Script-Fu, the scripting language of the Gimp
<http://www.gimp.org/>, the Scsh Scheme Shell
<http://www.swiss.ai.mit.edu/ftpdir/scsh/>, and the GUILE project
<http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/guile.html>.

May I add SCWM too it's Scheme and I guess I run into danger to start
the next thread about Schems is (isn'nt) a Lisp...

Oh, yeah, and there's Eclipse, a rather new window manager written in
Common Lisp: <http://dept-info.labri.u-bordeaux.fr/~strandh/>.

Sorry, but I am not familiar with French. I looked for an English
page, but did not succeed. Can you help me out with one?
