I probably did at one point know this as I did use it in college but for some reason forgot it (we are talking 15 plus years) given that is apparently how you distribute executable lisp code... IIRC though I hated image saving when it came to Squeak aka Smalltalk so I'm not sure if I did like that.

> given that is apparently how you distribute executable lisp code LispWorks can: * save images * create optimized images/applications for delivery, using a treeshaker for removing unused stuff * can generate Mac applications with the usual ceremony/ application bundles * can generate shared libraries which can be linked into programs written in C or similar Some other compilers can generate standalone C code doing whole-program compilation. For example mocl or some inhouse compilers used by companies.
