I’m actually surprised there isn’t a library called libemacs. It would fulfill the mythos and be really useful for a lot of tools.

- olliej 8y agoBut then companies could use it to assault rms’s Freedom ;)
- coldacid 8y agoAll it would (need to) be is just a ELisp interpreter.
- greggyb 8y agoGuile's VM already supports this.
- gnulinux 8y agoEmacs doesn't do anything in C other than running lisp, emacs really is just a lisp implementation with GUI and text editing focus. libemacs would be just like lua or cpython.
- kazinator 8y agoEmacs has over a quarter million lines of C, which must be there for a reason.
