In addition to the IDEs others have mentioned, CMUCL comes with
[well, you have to download the "cmucl-${platform}.extra.tar.bz2"
tarball and unpack it] a CLX-based editor called "Hemlock" and
a Motif-based graphical debugger, both of which run within the
image you're doing development in. So, yes, it's quite "acceptable".
