Re:Scripting in Common Lisp

It's not common lisp, but most of my Emacs use has been as a shell scripting alternative.
Workflow being based around interactive improvement of a script from a simple interactive-macro through to things that are effectively done as shell scripts.
The end result is something that can be run as a shell script, although translating to another language i.e. CL, Ruby, Go, etc. is the usual path for me to make better use / performance.
The old joke about Emacs being an operating system that needs a good editor is on need of a reboot.
Emacs is an interactive computing and development environment with half a dozen good text editors.
Factual isn't as funny though.

I'd personally be extremely happy if Medium blinked out of existence.
