Look at ECL ( http://ecls.sourceforge.net/ ), it compiles to C and can be embedded.

I never read his essays, but if anyone here is able to arc-ify them (say max. 1-3 sentences each), maybe I would start reading (the arc versions).

ECL. From a pure Lisp perspective, it's maybe not the really very best choice, but from an OS viewpoint, it's simply the most convenient for my tasks (Apple, Windows, Linux, free, really fast inline C FFI). Compressed its size can be as sma

The really interesting thing here is: A majority of c.l.l. 'celebrities' try to convince each other how un important Arc is, but nevertheless they literally spend hours and hours writing their comments about it... (At least they help to pu
