Lisp Coding Standards v1.0 (opens in new tab)

Over the years I've read many many Lisp programs.   Some were written by others and some  were written by me months or years earlier (so to me it was like looking at a program I'd never seen before).  I've noticed what makes it hard to read and understand a program and what makes it  a pleasure to read.  I wrote this document as a reminder to myself of the rules I must follow to write readable Lisp code.    I intend to keep extending the set of rules as time permits.
