LILY: C++ Class Library for writing Lisp-style C++ code

lang/lisp/impl/lily/
Lily (LIsp LibrarY) is a C++ class library that lets C++ programmers write LISP-style code. Includes some example programs from Winston's Lisp book recoded in Lily. Most or all of chapters 17 (Symbolic Pattern Matching), 18 (Expert Problem Solving), and 23 (Lisp in Lisp) are implemented in the examples. This package is mainly useful in academia for instructors who wish to teach AI techniques in C++. The garbage collection mechanism is rather slow, making it unattractive for industrial use.
