Lem is a general-purpose text editor and IDE written in Common Lisp.
It is designed to be highly extensible and lets users develop and apply extensions while the editor is running. The project has its own approach rather than simply imitating Emacs or Vim, and aims to provide a consistent interface together with real-time interaction between code and its execution state.
This is free and open source software.
