1 definition found From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (27 SEP 03) [foldoc]: Interlisp A dialect of Lisp developed in 1967 by Bolt, Beranek and Newman (Cambridge, MA) as a descendant of {BBN-Lisp}. It emphasises user interfaces. It is currently supported by {Xerox PARC}. Interlisp was once one of two main branches of LISP (the other being {MACLISP}). In 1981 {Common LISP} was begun in an effort to combine the best features of both. Interlisp includes a Lisp programming environment. It is {dynamically scoped}. NLAMBDA functions do not evaluate their arguments. Any function could be called with optional arguments. See also {CLISP}, {Interlisp-10}, {Interlisp-D}. ["Interlisp Programming Manual", W. Teitelman, TR, Xerox Rec Ctr 1975].
