Has anyone hacked the Lisp interpreter out of GNU Emacs and made a
little, bare-bones, stand-alone lisp out of it? There are several
places in the source where things are conditionalized on "standalone",
but the job wasn't done completely (at least not if I understand the
intention behind those conditionals correctly). I've got part of this
done, but would be more than happy to use what someone else has done
instead if they've done a reasonably clean job. If not, and if there's
any interest, I'll make what I do available. What I'm aiming at is a
library you can link a C program against that will give you the
functionality of a Lisp interpreter; having it be portable to a wide
range of machines and operating systems early on is a big
consideration, which is why we thought of GNU Lisp.

Perhaps the thing to use here is ELI, instead of GNU Elisp. ELI is a subset of CommonLisp, developed for embedding in other application programs, written in C, available on the X11R3 tape and at CMU as part of the Andrew toolkit. Bill

Anyone know where I can get a /copy of ELI via FTP?
