XLISP was an object-oriented Lisp dialect developed by David Betz.[3][4] It forms the core of the AutoLISP and Nyquist programming languages, which are used as APIs for AutoCAD and Audacity respectively, as well as XLispStat. [5] [6] [7]

XLISP was designed as a superset of Scheme (with some functions taken from Common Lisp) that implemented an object-oriented paradigm. Like other Lisp dialects, all code is written in S-expressions.
