There is some 3rd party LISP support for Visual Studio (Community edition is free) and Visual Studio Code (also free). Keep in mind that they are strictly code editors, but are not debuggers.

VLIDE is the only way to run the AutoCAD debugger and related tools, but for actual editing I use GNU Emacs.

- I also run SLIME under Emacs to connect to a Common Lisp implementation, so I can use that to produce cross-reference information also for AutoLISP code.(jumping to any function definition by a single Emacs command, etc.)

I like TextPad. You can download a free syntax file so that all the AutoLisp/Visual Lisp functions are color coded in blue. You can separately color code strings and numbers and comments. You can search and replace and can find matching parentheses, and of course have multiple files open at the same time.

You might want to try BLADE. http://blog.jtbworld.com/2018/02/bricscad-v182-comes-with-lisp-ide.html

It looks like AutoDesk has made some extensions for VS Code, which includes debugging. I also read that future versions of AutoCAD will stop using Vlide
