The '''Common Lisp Interface Manager''' ('''CLIM''') is a [[Common Lisp]]-based programming interface for creating user interfaces — i.e., [[GUI]]s. It is completely object-oriented and is based on the idea of stream input and output. There are also facilities for output device independence. It is descended from the GUI system Dynamic Windows of [[Symbolics]]'s [[Lisp machines]]<ref>"...you can check out Common Lisp Interface Manager (CLIM). A descendant of the Symbolics Lisp Machines GUI framework, CLIM is powerful but complex. Although many commercial Common Lisp implementations actually support it, it doesn't seem to have seen a lot of use. But in the past couple years, an open-source implementation of CLIM, [[McCLIM]] --now hosted at [http://common-lisp.net/project/mcclim/ Common-Lisp.net] --has been picking up steam lately, so we may be on the verge of a CLIM renaissance."[http://www.gigamonkeys.com/book/conclusion-whats-next.html] from "Conclusion: What's Next?" in ''[[Practical Common Lisp]]'', by [[Peter Seibel]].</ref>
