-  Ecmalisp is a Lisp-to-Javascript compiler, which is bootstrapped
+  JSCL is a Common Lisp to Javascript compiler, which is bootstrapped
   from Common Lisp and executed from the browser.

+** Status

+JSCL is and will be a subset of Common Lisp.  Of course it is far
+from complete, but it supports partially most common special

   - Explicit control tranfers ([[http://www.lispworks.com/documentation/HyperSpec/Body/s_tagbod.htm][tagbody]] and [[http://www.lispworks.com/documentation/HyperSpec/Body/s_go.htm][go]])
