For Scheme/Racket there are Geiser/Quack. They are not as good as SLIME,
but pretty close. In my opinion Scheme is much cleaner language. Yes,
macrosystem is different from one in common lips, but you just need to
adjust your habbits IMHO to make them work for you. Also Racket in
particular is
I've implemented a Common Lisp that interoperates with C++ and uses LLVM as the
backend because I was motivated by the same shortcomings in traditional
software development languages and tools (https://github.com/drmeister/clasp).
I choose Common Lisp rather than Scheme because the killer featur

Thank you.

In case you are not aware of Arcadia, you should check out this project:
http://arcadia-unity.tumblr.com/
It uses a (hacked) CLR fork of Clojure to connect to Unity. It might help to
inform you what directions to take.
I can tell you connecting a REPL to a live Unity game is a godsend. Being

While I got tagged as a "technical idealist" for a long time, in reality I am
deeply pragmatic. I fantasize about building a "crystalline pyramid of
comprehensible mutually-interlocking concepts", but I know the folly of it. I
have a not-so-large number of hours that I can possibly devote to t

It does of course.
*Sigh*
While I'm happy to see John Carmack using a Lisp, you're missing the point. If
you offer Lisp as a "scripting language" you'll fail to show off why *exactly*
it's better. S-expressions shine because they save you from the entirely
mechanical task of parsing. There are emergent properties

Hi all,
Thanks to all replies, at the moment I would tend to agree that generalised
`set!` might not be such a great idea after all:
- The notion of 'place' is essentially a pointer to a memory location,
but it is not the first-class citizen: the following expressions are not
equivalent:
