You can do something like that in most common lisps. I had to do something similar in clisp for a programming competition. I had a small program that would load the code you needed, dump an image, and then write a batch file calling clisp with your image. I haven't touched it in a while, but if its useful I'll clean it up and put it on cliki somewhere. I've never touched wxCL though, so I don't know what kind of things you have to include when distributing it. I'll look into it on Monday, after finals are over. I don't promise a movie of any type.
