I think bitC was significantly more than that but I never used it in anger. Years ago I came across another system, c-amplify, which was more literally a lisp syntax for C, intriguing but at the time wasn't able to get it to work. https://voodoo-slide.blogspot.com/2010/01/amplifying-c.html https://voodoo-slide.blogspot.com/2010/01/amplifying-c.html A whole lot of people, including commenters on the link above, don't really get the difference between something like that and a lisp-to-C compiler. I'm not sure where the cognitive gap lies.
