The UnCommon Web website mentions ports to some Lisp implementations. LispWorks is not one of the
mentioned ones.

Is there a special problem using LispWorks?
Is anybody working on an adaptation?
Can I use it with LispWorks?
Is emacs required to run UCW?

no, in fact ucw did once run on lispworks (version 0.3.3 afair). since
i don't develop, deploy or even test on lispworks i'm not going to
call it supported. patches are welcome though.

> Is anybody working on an adaptation?

not that i know of.

> Can I use it with LispWorks?

yes. but there are two issues at the moment:

1) ucw (in particular the fake call/cc engine which lies underneath
   it) is in a state of flux.

2) there may be porting issues involed. i have attempted to remain as
   stadard as possible and put the things i know are implementation
   specefic in clearly defined places, though somethings may still
   have escaped me.

no.
