       | This project has the best possible name for a port of Clojure.

       | Maybe the author is interested in the following proposal:

       | https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/424
       | 
       | Anyhow - I do like the idea very much. It seems to me that it
       | enables any solo developer to incorporate the entire jvm
       | ecosystem. At a first glance the proposed syntax appears
       | cumberstone, but I do not grasp everything. Do not use Clojure or
       | CL, but Scheme.

         | Huh. First thing that came to my mind would be to try just
         | using clojure from within ABCL: https://www.cliki.net/ABCL
         | 
         | But that doesn't help if you don't want to target the JVM.

           | I did exactly this in the past.
           | https://github.com/lsevero/abclj I'm already being able to
           | run some CL software from clojure for example maxima on
           | https://github.com/lsevero/clj-maxima.

             | Very neat projects! Now one can run CL in Clojure, and
             | Clojure in CL. Must be an alien language after all.

             | I'd be interested in an Armed Bear Clojure Show HN post. I
             | see there was one a couple years ago, but it didn't get any
             | discussion, but it was probably prior to you actually
             | running Maxima through Clojure.
             | 
             | Anyway, nicely done!
