CLforJava

An implementation of Common Lisp on Java done by the students and faculty of College of Charleston. It compiles LISP to Java byte code rather than Java, and also allows you to utilise Lisp types and code from within Java programs, which is its main advantage over other similar "LISP on Java" implementations.

The project originally started in 2003 and while the language was initially written in Java. It was increasingly being written in itself. The project was shut down in 2009 for reasons unknown, although an individual kept things going for another year. The tools were not fully finished by that time and in 2014 the last code repository was taken off the net, making the tool unavailable.
