My I suggest that we create a Firefox LISP IDE that anyone can download then hook to whatever compiler they want. The firefox plug-in would have editor with syntax coloring and code completion. A interaction pane with the LISP process outside Firefox( or inside firefox which is a whole other project). The simplicity of download and "play" would help people just play with lisp.
