Installing uLisp
This download is a single text file. To compile it in the Arduino or Energia IDE either save it as a text file and rename it to a .cpp file, or copy and paste the text into a new empty project file.
Download the latest Arduino IDE from arduino.cc, or the latest Energia IDE from energia.nu.
To install uLisp on the BBC Micro Bit see BBC Micro:bit.
If you're using uLisp with the Arduino IDE on Debian or OpenBSD see these threads on GitHub: https://github.com/technoblogy/ulisp/pull/2 and https://github.com/technoblogy/ulisp/pull/22.
Note that saved images are not generally compatible between different versions of uLisp.

Test suites
The following files contains test suites I use for testing each release of uLisp. You may find these useful if you are porting uLisp to another platform:
Test suite - 8/16-bit version (ATmega and MSP430)
Test suite - 32-bit version (ARM and ESP8266)
Test suite - Floating point (ARM and ESP8266)
