The Emacs editor is largely written in LISP - strange dialect I have heard - and you can run LISP there

Hai everybody, This is the first time I am writing an email to this mailing list. I am a final year MCA student. As a part of the course i have a subject called Artificial Intelligence. In this subject we have a language LISP (LISt Processing) I am a newbie in Linux and I heard that Linux is a good platform for local area networks and programmers Can you please tell me about interpreters or compilers used for LISP programs under Linux platform? Thank you, Sudheer S

List of Lisp/Scheme environments available under GNU/Linux
gcl - GNU Common Lisp compiler. GNU Common Lisp (GCL) is a Common Lisp compiler and interpreter implemented in C, and complying mostly with the standard set forth in the book "Common Lisp, the Language I". It attempts to strike a useful middle ground in performance and portability from its design around C.
cl-imho - Common Lisp web development framework IMHO provides an web application server environment for Common Lisp.
cmucl - The CMUCL lisp compiler and development system. This is the basis package for CMUCL. It contains the base image with the compiler, PCL (CLOS), and the tty based debugger. It also contains cmuclconfig to configure in additional libraries.
sbcl - Steel Bank Common Lisp, a fork from CMUCL SBCL is a Common Lisp compiler with a transparent build process, that aims for correctness and ANSI compliance.
clisp - GNU CLISP, a Common Lisp implementation Common Lisp is a high-level, general-purpose programming language. GNU CLISP is a Common Lisp implementation by Bruno Haible of Karlsruhe University and Michael Stoll of Munich University, both in Germany. It mostly supports the Lisp described in the ANSI Common Lisp standard. It runs on microcomputers (OS/2, Windows NT/2000, Windows 95/98, Amiga 500-4000, Acorn RISC PC) as well as on Unix workstations (Linux, SVR4, Sun4, DEC Alpha OSF, HP-UX, BeOS, NeXTstep, SGI, AIX, Sun3 and others) and needs only 2 MB of RAM.
rep - lisp command interpreter frontends to librep This package contains the command-line frontends to the librep lisp interpreter.
libapache-mod-lisp - An Apache module that interfaces with Lisp environments Establishes a link between the Apache web server and a Lisp environment that allows a Lisp program to generate dynamic content while letting Apache take care of the dirty details of HTTP serving. The protocol between Lisp and Apache is simple, making it easy to create WWW- accessible applications quickly.
Scheme is a dialect of LISP. LISP-- (reduced clean spec of lisp) ---------------------------------------------------------------- guile1.4 - The GNU extension language and Scheme interpreter. Guile, the GNU Ubiquitous Intelligent Language for Extension, is a scheme implementation designed for real world programming, supporting a rich Unix interface, a module system, and undergoing rapid development. `guile' is a scheme interpreter that can execute scheme scripts (with a #! line at the top of the file), or run as an inferior scheme process inside Emacs.
mit-scheme - The MIT Scheme development environment MIT Scheme is an implementation of the Scheme programming language, providing an interpreter, compiler, source-code debugger, integrated Emacs-like editor, and a large runtime library. MIT Scheme is best suited to programming large applications with a rapid development cycle.
escm - Embedded Scheme Processor escm is a filter program which takes a text with embedded Scheme exressions, copies it to the output with evaluating the Scheme expressions. You can use the power of Scheme to preprocess various text files, including CGI scripts.
For Scheme, I will recommend you to go for Guile http://www.gnu.org/software/guile For Lisp go for GNU Common Lisp http://www.gnu.org/software/gcl
There is a huge database of libraries for lisp and scheme. Most of the things u want to try in AI are probably already written in Lisp or Scheme. If you want to know more, do let me know.
I personally like Scheme better than Lisp.

Guile can be used independently as a Scheme interpreter as well as an extension library. Just type "guile" at the prompt, you will get the read-eval-print loop.
To make scripts executable, add this like to the beginning of the script and do chmod +x -----> #!/usr/bin/guile \ -s !# <-----
Unlike other scripting languages, guile lets your have command-line arguments spawn across multiple lines, thats why you have #! and !# interface.
hello.scm: -----> #!/usr/bin/guile \ -s !# (display "Hello GNU") (newline) <-----
Hope this helps

Is Guile usable on its own? I thought it was a library designed to embed the language into other applications.
