LISP based kernel

All off topic discussions go here. Everything from the funny thing your cat did to your favorite tv shows. Non-programming computer questions are ok too.

LISP based kernel

Post by amd64pager »

LISP is a very nice language IMO.I recently thought whether anyone could create a kernel in LISP.Maybe we can write a LISP compiler which compiles LISP to machine code,and then write a LISP barebones based on that LISP compiler.In that compiler we could allow for assembler-based routines to be called from LISP.Maybe we can also create a separate LISP dialect intended for kernel development.Whats your opinion on it?
It's surprising what the semiconductor industry's definition of macro is and what the CS description is.
