Can some one recommend a good book or web site that you'd describe as THE clisp
reference for beginners? I'm currently using the clisp document that came with
the download as well as "Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs"
from the MIT press web site. However, thus far, I have found them lacking a
few things -- namely how to input information from a command prompt -- and was
curious if there were any documents/materials people here liked. Thanks.

I've just started to learn Lisp myself and out of all the websites and
on-line books i looked at i think "A gentle introduction to symbolic
computation" is the best. Don't let the title scare you: it is a book
about learning Lisp. You can download it at

Here's a page with some useful links:

I am assuming that you are looking for information about the language
Common Lisp, as opposed to the implementation called CLISP. The
language is generally referred to as Common Lisp, or CL, and not clisp;
that is the name of a particular implementation.

Yes, I am. Thank you. I was thinking of "clisp" in the same regard I think of
"perl", the program I run to work with it. Thank you for correcting me before
I really goofed up. :)
