> This means that, unlike in Emacs, it's straightforward to write extensions in whatever language is best for the job... Lisp is the best language for the job!

  Yeah I don't see why one would want to write extensions in anything but lisp. Lisp is way more powerful and straightforward! :)

    I use both a lua-configured mail-client, and a lisp-configured emacs. Of the two they're both powerful and extensible, but the Lua config feels more natural to me.

      Hmmm but does the mail-client let you load code in without restart? The Lua also might feel more natural just because of having used imperative languages more.

        It can do - there is a trivial eval(read_input()) facility baked in. https://github.com/lumail/lumail2/ https://github.com/lumail/lumail2/
