Ooooh nice!!! That is amazing but how viable is common lisp for low level programming. Instead of embedding CL, what about a DSL that creates binaries, does something like this exist?

For embedded application (as in micro-controllers) there is http://www.ulisp.com/

SBCL still needs garbage collection. There are also https://github.com/carp-lang/Carp and https://github.com/bakpakin/Fennel

I haven't used these. Would be great if low-level and embedded engineers could chime in.
