Common Lisp
In order to make AutoLisp into a full fledged CL implementation various extra features are needed. Some of these can be implemented direct in AutoLisp itself by simply creating a library of standard functions, though some features are impossible to recreate with the normal AutoLisp functionality.
Firstly we'll need a benchmark base to which the library needs to comply.
CLHS
Common Lisp is an ANSI standardized dialect of lisp. It's been chosen as a benchmark for the AutoLisp Extensions for various reasons. Thus its HyperSpec is used as the source for all the added functionality which alisp-ext is supposed to implement.
The following pages relate to various Common Lisp libraries. They are structured in a manner similar to the Common Lisp HyperSpec in order to match as close as possible.

Implemented in AutoLisp
These are the functions / features which can be implemented in AutoLisp.
Outside of AutoLisp
These functions / features need to be implemented using some other external product. Probably ObjectARX or DotNet would be required to implement these.
