Genera
This article is about an Operating System. For the Scientific Classification term, see Genus.
Genera was an operating system and development environment for Lisp machines developed by Symbolics. It was essentially a fork of an earlier operating system originating on the MIT AI Lab's Lisp machines which Symbolics had used in common with LMI. The ~1.5 million lines of code that made up Genera are written in various Lisp dialects, with a number of extensions (such as for object-oriented programming) folded in.
Reportedly, there is a version running on 64Bit AMD/Intel under 64Bit Linux.[citation needed]
