I don't see how it's possible to make a good framework in C. It lacks the necessary abstractions. It lacks even basic vital things like namespaces. Why on earth would someone attempt this in C rather than C++? You could come pretty close to simply rewriting a scripting framework in C++. I don't know what you can get done in C. It will be so dependent on programmer conventions it will be hideous. People actually have made some damn good C++ frameworks. See asio. What are the C ones? Any complex C system devolves into a mess of macros, casts, and naming conventions.
