"LISP Generator"

A Google AD had a Link to something called "LISP Generator", http://www.beowolftech.com/lispgen/home.html - I dont know what to think about this. Looks like the approach is to generate programs only by Menus.

Having all (or at least all essential) functions mentioned in a searchable Menu could be useful for beginners, but can this really be used for programming? I cannot really imagine that, it sounds like the stuff people are talking about using UML-Diagrams for programming.

Do you know more about it? Do you have an opinion about it?

AFAIK it's a program to facilitate scripting AutoCAD, not something used for programing.

Take a look at http://recherche.ircam.fr/equipes/repmus/OpenMusic/ . It's focused in music composition, but the framework is also capable of general visual programming.

Hm. Looks interesting, but produces a dependency hell of deadlinks, non-working installers, etc. (well, at least I have lispworks here again).
