There's some kind of paradox here. You say it's mostly a lisp interpreter, but then, also, mostly editor functionality written in lisp. I'm not sure you can have it both ways...

It's lisp man, of course you can have it both ways. Code is really data, your program is actually your environment, your editor is actually a giant lisp program with a built-in lisp interpreter. Or is it a lisp interpreter with a built-in editor? I dunno. I'm off to install this release :)
