Tree’s Blog » Why I’m Not Using LISP: "Only two open-source LISP implementations support Unicode: CLISP and SBCL. Both are good implementations, but neither work well on my Mac OS X machine. In particular, the FFI in the latest Clisp is busted, and neither seem to work with SLIME. However, OpenMCL does work out of the box on my G5. It works with the latest released SLIME. But it does not have Unicode support. Allegro supports Unicode, but I can’t afford that."
