  3. …more directly than Haskell, so it's easier to write allocation-free code in hot paths. [2] https://github.com/vsedach/Vacietis

  4. How about C? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25531871 https://github.com/vsedach/Vacietis ================ Vacietis is a C compiler for Common Lisp systems. Vacietis works by loading C code into a Common Lisp runtime as though it were…

  6. …to be able to read in valid C89 code, and implemented a backend to compile that to common-lisp: https://github.com/vsedach/Vacietis

  7. Here's a real-word C compiler where the sizeof() everything is 1; https://github.com/vsedach/Vacietis For another example, the LLVM webassembly backend doesn't put the call stack in the same address space as the heap at all.

  10. …not that hairy. I did a recursive-descent one as a Common Lisp reader macro in less than 1k loc: https://github.com/vsedach/Vacietis/blob/master/compiler/rea... C is ok in that you can handle everything (including typedefs) in a single…

  11. The Vacietis ( https://github.com/vsedach/Vacietis/ ) reader can be easily adapted to do that. You can see examples in the unit tests: https://github.com/vsedach/Vacietis/blob/master/test/reader-... As-is, C block constructs get mapped…

  14. This is an instance of a C to Lisp compiler that translates to s-expressions https://github.com/vsedach/Vacietis

  16. …an update after almost 5 years! I looked into Clue for compiling C to Common Lisp before writing https://github.com/vsedach/Vacietis because I wanted something that would interop better with CL types and be able to run self-contained.

  18. …"interactive" compilers like Lisp ones are. I am writing a C to Common Lisp translator right now ( https://github.com/vsedach/Vacietis ). This is surprisingly easy because C is largely a small subset of Common Lisp. Pointers are trivial to…

  19. …a competent C programmer, and I have no desire to become one. Trying to write a compiler for C ( https://github.com/vsedach/vacietis ) has only cemented my dislike for the language. I don't blame Dennis Ritchie for it. He probably thought…
