languages/lisp looks like a nice implementation of Common Lisp. However it hasn't kept up with development in Parrot. Some areas I encountered, when trying to 'make' in languages/lisp. i. lexical scoping, The opcodes new_pad and peed_pad are gone now ii. Calling conventions, use :slurpy for getting a variable number of return values iii. regexp ops, the rx_* ops are gone iv. Using namespace might simplify some things It might be nice to bring languages/lisp back to life. An idea of mine is to use SWIP and CFFI for convient access to C-libraries from Parrot, http://rakudo.org/parrot/index.cgi?cffi.
