Description

Summary:

While not formaly declared a conforming ANSI Common Lisp implementation, the advertizing strongly leans toward it:

  Common Lisp for iOS and Android.

    Creating mobile applications shouldn't require you to do everything 
    in Java and Objective-C. With mocl, you can put your application 
    logic into a shared Common Lisp library that runs on both iOS and 
    Android. Furthermore, since mocl runs COMMON LISP, AN ANSI STANDARD
    like C, you can re-use your code across many other Common Lisp 
    implementations. Run your code everywhere — and at native speed.

I would therefore EVENTUALLY expect a conformance statement as specified by:

http://www.lispworks.com/documentation/HyperSpec/Body/01_eae.htm

and in the meantime, a declaration of mocl as a subset of Common Lisp as specified by:

http://www.lispworks.com/documentation/HyperSpec/Body/01_g.htm

In addition, it would be nice to document the implemented subset and features existing so far as per:

http://www.lispworks.com/documentation/HyperSpec/Body/01_eab.htm


Steps to Reproduce:

Visit https://wukix.com or the downloaded MANUAL.pdf in the tarball, and find no documentation of the currently implemented subset.

Expected Results:

Documentation of implementation specific features and restrictions should be available.


Actual Results:

It's not found.


Notes:

Comments

Hi,

Thanks for taking the time to point this out. Have updated the description to denote "an expansive subset" for clarity.

Will work towards providing more documentation. Please bear with!
