'''Oaklisp''' is a message based portable [[object-oriented]] [[Scheme (programming language)|Scheme]] developed by Kevin J. Lang and Barak A. Pearlmutter while Computer Science PhD students at [[Carnegie Mellon University]].<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Lang |first1=Kevin J. |last2=Pearlmutter |first2=Barak A. |date=November 1986 |title=Oaklisp: an object-oriented scheme with first class types |url=https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/960112.28701 |journal=ACM SIGPLAN Notices |language=en |volume=21 |issue=11 |pages=30–37 |doi=10.1145/960112.28701 |issn=0362-1340|url-access=subscription }}</ref>  Oaklisp uses a superset of Scheme [[syntax]].  It is based on generic operations rather than functions, and features anonymous classes, [[multiple inheritance]], a strong error system, setters and locators for operations, and a facility for [[Dynamic binding (computer science)|dynamic binding]].

Version 1.2 includes an interface, [[bytecode]] [[compiler]], [[run-time system]] and documentation.
