Hi guys!

I comming from C++ and Smalltalk world and now I would like to explore some
kind of Object Oriented
Lisp. I have downloaded LispWorks and the only thing I could do is to press
all these buttons on IDE in
random order. But I want to know more, eventually, I would like to be able
to write some simple and sofisticated
programs..

Can you tell me of any good tutorials.... I am sure it was hard time for you
to start learning Lisp and I would like
to skip that unproductive activity (i.e. having hard time:)

 Thank you for any leads,

     Vlastimil Adamovsky

Maybe you should check out http://www.lisp.org/table/contents.htm

There are lots of good links there, including some online tutorials and
reference material.  OO lisp is CLOS (Common Lisp Object System) and you can
find it in the references and tuktorials.

Enjoy!

I'm also new to lisp.  Sonja E. Keene's book
"Object-Oriented Programming in Common Lisp" was
very useful.  It descibes CLOS simply and clearly.
And it has many usefull examples.
