Is there a Common Lisp binding for Motif?
[Last modified: Oct 94] Answer: Try CLM. This includes a toolkit demon (in C) that takes a widget description (with callbacks), and forks a new process for each Motif application (which can be just a single menu, or whatever). Lisp can then continue running, with a separate lightweight lisp process handling the connection & callbacks. In North America & net environs, CLM-2.3.tar.Z is available from ftp.x.org. There is also CLIM, the Common Lisp Interface Manager. It provides access to motif and other toolkits and window systems. Here is some blurb: “Version 2.0 of the Common Lisp Interface Manager (CLIM) provides access to Motif. CLIM is the emerging standard for GUI development in Common Lisp. It offers a set of high-level facilities that enable rapid construction of user interfaces. Applications written using CLIM are portable across a variety of window systems and toolkits. For example, on the X window System, both Motif (OSF/Motif) and Openlook (OLIT) are supported. CLIM accesses t
