Not sure what you mean by between Scheme and CL, but if there's one Lisp that'll catch on to today's practical needs, it's probably Clojure (and ClojureScript).

- orthecreedence 13y agoWhat I meant by inbetween is something exactly like CL with a smaller footprint and possibly a smaller library. I believe CL more than covers today's practical needs (real threading, compiling to machine code, calling out to C, etc etc). I might choose Clojure if I was writing something highly concurrent that required a more functional approach, but for any other general purpose app I'll take CL any day. (Disclosure: I've never actually built anything in Clojure).
