Thanks for the reply Justin. I realise now after doing some research last night that CFFI really only provides FFI for C, and that wrapping would be required. I may look into this myself at some point, but fortunately I wont have any free time until near the end of the year.
Was any similar alternative library identified that might offer the same capabilities and provide a more accessible interface for Lisp?
